Chapter 101
Zhizhi thinks the interview is okay.
She no longer talked to Fu Mingyu, but just chatted with Mr. Fu for a while. Mr. Fu understood and took his son away.
Fu Mingyu was puzzled - isn't this a blind date? All he knew was that the beautiful girl was Zhizhi, and he didn't even know how old she was, where she was from, and how many members of the family she was in, so why... was she leaving?
"Dad, I think we can talk again..." Fu Mingyu said eagerly, "It's okay to go home anyway..." Mr. Fu
took his son and left, "Who said it's okay to go home, don't you have to pack your luggage? "
"Huh? Pack your luggage?" Fu Mingyu was at a loss.
Mr. Fu knew that he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly made up for it, "This, isn't this... Is the season changing soon? I have to tidy up and take out the thick quilt..."
Fu Mingyu murmured, "What does this have to do with me? Isn't it my mother and sister-in-law who do this every year..."
Zhizhi smiled and picked up the bamboo cup, took a sip of the cold golden cherry juice, and felt that most of the fatigue had dissipated.
Then he turned his head and found that Hong Hehe was sitting on the small bench in a daze, with straight eyes and a smirk on his face?
Zhizhi was startled, and patted Hong Hehe, "Hehe, what are you doing?" "
Ah! Here you come... Is there a guest here for noodles?" Hong Hehe jumped up all of a sudden.
It turned out not to be?
Then Hong Hehe scolded: "Oh, Zhizhi, what are you doing, you scared me!" Then he sat on the small bench again, and continued to listen attentively with his ears up.
Zhizhi was stunned for a moment, and listened for a while...
She understood.
ââHong Hehe This is the sound of a movie being played in a cinema!
Looking at the other partners, they were all obediently sitting on the small bench, listening seriously with smirks on their faces.
Zhizhi sighed, "When I have money, I will definitely invite everyone to watch a movie."
This was heard by Mr. Fu.
He looked at Zhizhi with a thoughtful expression.
But in the end, Mr. Fu dragged his son away in a hurry.
For the whole afternoon, Li Shu rode his bicycle and took Zhi Zhi to see the partners of other teams.
The situation of each team is similar: the business is very good from early morning to noon, and it is not so good after noon... After all, the eating habits of ordinary people, it is no problem to eat some noodle soup in the morning or at noon, and it is no problem for dinner. You have to eat rice seriously.
But after dinner, at midnight snack time, the noodle stall's business picked up again.
Also because of the leisure time in the afternoon, when Zhizhi went to visit other friends, she also took a stroll down the street and bought a lot of things.
In terms of daily necessities, Jiefang shoes and cloth shoes, soap, towels, etc. are the most frequently traded. In terms of food, various beans, flour, rice and so on were replaced.
On this day, we are open again until the early hours of the morning.
After midnight, the fairing stops.
But the bus was also out of service early in the morning.
Although Zhizhi already planned to withdraw some of the purchased materials in advance, such as barrels and basins that can be sent back in advance, things like charcoal stoves, wooden barrels for fish soup, porcelain bowls, low tables, and small benches There is no way to take away such things in advance.
After closing the stall, everyone dragged their tired bodies, carrying burdens, pushing a wheelbarrow, carrying burdens and carrying big and small bags... and walked to Liu Baping's house stepping on the starlight.
At two o'clock in the morning, the last team returned.
Everyone was sitting in the yard of Liu Baping's house, holding Long Qiang in their hands, and Tao Rongye cooked a large pot of fish bone soup to reward everyone, with white, fat and soft noodles lying in it... Everyone feasted on it
.
While asking for noodles, everyone talked about various things that happened when setting up the stall today...
After eating the noodles, Zhizhi motioned Gao Tiantian to take out a pen and paper to keep accounts, and she presided over asking the captains of each team to write Take out all the business income today.
There are five teams in total: the family compound of the Municipal Party Committee, the movie theater, the railway station, the Chengdong market, and the Chengxi market.
Among them, the creation of the train station team was the most impressive, earning a total of 320 yuan!
The team in the east of the city earns 85 yuan, the team in the west of the city earns 72 yuan, the movie theater team earns 55 yuan, and the team in the municipal party committee family compound earns 48 yuan... The municipal party committee family compound earns less money
. Itâs because firstly, most people leave the office on weekends, the flow of people will decrease, and the purchasing power will be weakened; secondly, on Saturday, Zhizhiâs products have already been exposed, so the sales on Sunday are far less than on Saturday .
And the performance of the train station today is gratifying because... this business is based on the "hate" of the people, and everything is an inevitable coincidence.
I earned a total of 580 today, plus the 275 I earned yesterday, and the total is 855 yuan!
As soon as Zhizhi announced the number, the partners couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice!
Then Zhizhi began to count various expenses:
they didn't have flour, and bought a lot of flour to sell fish soup noodles, and they spent 40 yuan here! In addition, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar have to be bought...
In order to cooperate with everyone, Liu Baping's family did not go to work for two days. They also provided so much firewood and picked up so much water. She came forward to borrow bowls, chopsticks, small tables and low stools...
and some damage to the bowls, chopsticks, tables and chairs during these days, all of which should be included.
After accounting, the total expenditure is 136 yuan.
Income minus expenses, that is, everyone earned a total of 719 yuan!
Next, Zhi Zhi announced the cost she had already spent to purchase various supplies and prepare to take them back to Seagull Island: 243 yuan.
That is, there are 476 yuan left on hand.
Zhizhi said to everyone: "Tiantian made a budget for clothing before, and the total budget for 11 of us was 200 yuan. So we also put down 276 yuan on the account. I suggest that this money account become our public account... Let Tian Tian keep and keep the accounts, if we need to add something for the group in the future, or if a comrade is sick and needs to go to the hospital, we will use the money to pay, how about it?" Of course, everyone has no opinion
.
Gao Tiantian was surprised and delighted, "I, I...but I don't understand accounting either!"
"It's easy to debit accounts," Zhizhi said with a smile, "Tiantian, I'll teach you."
Hong Hehe Then exclaimed, "Zhi Zhi, why do you know everything?"
Zhi Zhi smiled, "My sister-in-law is an accountant in the unit, and I followed her to read a few books on accounting and finance."
Next, Zhi Zhi continued to say to everyone: " Furthermore, among the supplies I purchased this time, there are some shoes... Uncle Luo, Uncle Liu, Uncle Lin and Uncle Yao have put in a lot of effort for us! We have little effort, and we can still They canât live without a pair of new clothes and a pair of leather shoes... So I propose that each of them be given two pairs of new shoes, and the future collective expenses that belong to them will also be included in our public account. For example, We take care of them as a group! Do you have any opinions?"
Tao Rongye was the first to raise his hand, "I agree with Zhizhi's opinion!"
Everyone laughed.
However, everyone expressed their opinions one after another,
"I also agree!"
"The work done by the uncles on Seagull Island is no less than us, they are worth it!" "
We are a family! Of course we agree!"
"I have no objection !"
Zhizhi turned her head to look at the head.
The head of the family is looking at these energetic young people with a smile.
Zhizhi said: "Tangtang, the two or three catties of sea fish we brought over for sale on the first day still have money left at the canteen of the municipal party committee. I'll go and see it with you tomorrow. If there is something we like, then shall we change it?"
The head of the house said indifferently: "You make up your mind!"
Zhizhi knew that the head of the house had fallen into laziness again.
After thinking about it, she said, "In my opinion, it's better to replace them all with rice and shoes. These two things are the most scarce..." Then she said to the boss seriously, "I still have something to do with you. , Discuss with Bapingâs sister-in-law.â
âTell me.â
Zhi Zhi said, âAs for the stall we set up at the train station today, I want Bapingâs sister-in-law to continue to do it. Itâs better to sell sea fish bones and cook them to see the fish. Soup noodles... In this case, we Zhengyi Island provides four or five sea fish to Baping's sister-in-law every day. Baping's sister-in-law sells fish soup noodles and earns money, and Zhengyi Island also has a fixed sales place..." "Even if you can only earn money every
day If itâs two or three yuan, itâs quite a lot if you save it in a month. After the accumulation, we will also set up a collective account. If we encounter Liu Xiaoyunâs situation again, we will not be afraid.â Zhi Zhi said.
As he said that, Zhizhi remembered another thing, "Also, we can establish a good supply relationship at the municipal party committee's canteen. Let's come here once a week to sell fish... We don't want money, just exchange rice and daily necessities , can also improve the quality of life of the residents on Justice Island!"
The head of the family is willing, but he frowned, "It's troublesome."
Zhizhi laughed, "As long as you agree, I will discuss this matter later. Leave it to Xu Yongjun! Let him keep the accounts... As for sending fish, after talking about the noodle stall business with Baping's sister-in-law tomorrow, she wants to do it. Let's send someone to deliver fish to her every night... By the way, every night On the following Saturday, we can also deliver the fish we ordered from the canteen, and give it to Mrs. Baping, and ask her to send it to the canteen.â
"Success!" This time, the head of the family readily agreed.
After the discussion, everyone took turns to wash up, and then squeezed into the big room on the floor.
Everyone was so excited, they lay on the bed and chattered for a long time, talking about setting up a stall and doing business to make money in the past two days...
Because Zhi Zhi mentioned Liu Xiaoyun's medical treatment twice in a row during the night. Gao Tiantian began to talk about Liu Xiaoyun, "... I don't know if Liu Xiaoyun is in good health? She is really unlucky, her health is not good, and her family can't tolerate her. She still has to go to such a remote place. Local insertionï½team...she has already left?"
"Hey, what do you care about her!"
Hong Hehe hated Liu Xiaoyun, so he changed the subject, "Today, I squatted outside the movie theater all day, and even Liu Sanjie I can recite all the lines... But when are we going to go to the cinema to watch a movie?"
Uncle Luo and the others couldn't hold back, and asked, "What is the cinema like?"
The educated youths chirped and explained Let's take a look at what the cinema in their hometown is like...
Uncle Luo and the others are even more eager.
At this time, Li Shu's voice suddenly soundedâ
"It's like this, Mr. Fu came to me this afternoon and said, if we want to watch a movie, he can find a way to let us watch it at noon tomorrow... But, the daytime show Movies, you know, the effect is definitely not that good."
ââNowadays, all movie theaters are open-air. During the day, the natural light is too strong, and the light from the projector hits the screen, so the display will not be very good.
Everyone was stunned together, and then they were overjoyed!
"It's okay, it's okay! As long as there is a movie to watch! I haven't seen Third Sister Liu..." "I've
lived my whole life, and thanks to these dolls, I came to the city, and I can still watch movies after taking the bus!" "
Ahhh Ah, can we go to the movies together?"
"That's great, that's great! Huh, I'm going to buy fried melon seeds!" "I'm going to
watch a movie tomorrow... If I have a chance to take the train again in the future! I'm fifty-three and haven't taken the train yet!" "
No Going to watch a movie tomorrow is going to watch a movie today, itâs already four oâclock in the morning, if you donât go to sleep, it will be dawn!â
â¦
Chapter 102
On Monday morning, after everyone woke up, Zhizhi first gave Liu Baping a sum of money for housing and cooking expenses for so many of them these days.
Liu Baping desperately said no, no...
Zhizhi smiled and gave her the money.
Then the boss told Liu Baping and asked her if she would like to go to the train station to set up a stall.
In the past few days, Liu Baping has participated in all the projects of Zhizhi and the others. She knows how to make fish bone soup, make hand-rolled noodles, steam marinated fish pieces...
she knows all of these.
There is really no other trick to selling fish soup meat - just need fresh sea fish!
She also noticed the local people's love and acceptance of fish soup noodles.
Now the boss asked her if she would like to continue selling fish noodle soup?
Liu Baping was overjoyed!
She nodded desperately.
This is the market that Zhi Zhi and Da Dangjia have already opened up. She doesn't need to think about new styles and flavors, and she doesn't need to worry about the supply of fish. She just needs to continue...to start this small business and earn money. To get money in exchange for rice to feed her four children!
It happened that Long Qiang and Tao Rongye cooked another pot of fresh fish bone soup to make breakfast for everyone... They
simply gave the big pot of fish soup and hand-rolled noodles to Liu Baping, and then Uncle Liu and Uncle Lin took it With her and Wen Laogen, carrying tables, chairs, pots, stoves and bowls, they went to the train station to set up a stall together.
While Uncle Liu and Uncle Lin were sending Liu Baping and his wife to set up a stall, Zhizhi let everyone move around freely, and then took the big boss to the canteen in the family compound of the Municipal Party Committee.
Li Shu doesn't go anywhere, but follows Zhi Zhi.
In fact, Tao Rongye also wanted to follow...
but Li Shu's expression was a bit scary, Tao Rongye was silent for a long time, and went shopping with Chen Yuejin and the others.
Zhi Zhi didn't know anything about the turmoil between the men.
She brought the boss to the commissary, and was warmly greeted by the elder sister of the commissary. The eldest sister told Zhizhi that during the past few days, the canteen specially saved up some rice and various shoes for her, and asked Zhizhi what she wanted.
Zhi Zhi looked at the head of the family.
The big boss turned his head aside.
Zhizhi sighed, and had to make up her own mind. The rice cost 1 dime a catty, a pair of Jiefang shoes cost 3.5 yuan, and a pair of handmade cloth shoes cost 2 yuan...
In the end, she exchanged 200 catties of rice, six pairs of Jiefang shoes, and eleven pairs of handmade cloth shoes.
Next, Zhizhi and the elder sister made an agreement that every Saturday early in the morning, they would bring over fifty fresh sea fish weighing less than 3 catties, and then exchange them for rice, shoes, or daily necessities.
The accompanying Uncle Luo and Uncle Yao carried away the rice and shoes, while Zhi Zhi and Da Dangjia chatted and walked to the cinema.
Zhizhi was very curious about the spearfishing and fishing of the head of the family, so she couldn't help asking a few more questions, "Tangtang, why do you go fishing at night? Isn't the light bad and pitch black at night? Can you see clearly?"
The head of the house shook his head, "It's not dark, it's like daytime."
"Ah?"
Zhi Zhi looked at the head of the house suspiciously.
ââThe night of the sea is the same as the day?
It seemed that the head of the family wanted to explain it to her.
She opened her mouth, seeming to realize... don't know where to start?
"Anyway, I'm going back tonight, so I'll take you to see it along the way." The head said calmly.
About going to sea, Zhizhi, who came from later generations, is not ignorant.
She asked excitedly: "Tangtang, when you go out to sea...would you just set up a charcoal stove and set a pot on the boat, and just...simmer the fish when you fork it?" "That's not true.
"
The head of the family said honestly: "The stewed fish is too troublesome, we usually eat it raw."
Zhizhi's eyes lit up all of
a sudden , "Sashimi???" That way, lobster meat and cuttlefish taste better when eaten raw, so they often donât last long enough to bring them back for you to eat... Iâll bring you a few more lobsters tonight.â Then he asked
Zhi Zhi, âCan you hold your breath? How long? Can you open your eyes in the sea?"
Zhi Zhi heard what she meant: If you hold your breath for a long time and dare to open your eyes in the sea, I will take you to dive.
Zhizhi shook her head regretfully, "The maximum time to hold your breath is two minutes... I, I can't open my eyes in the sea." The head of the
family nodded, "Then it's the same when watching from the side of the boat."
The two chatted like this, and came to the cinema.
Zhi Zhi asked the head, "Have you seen the movie?"
The head shook his head.
Zhizhi said: "I've only watched it two or three times...you have to eat some snacks to get excited when watching a movie, let's go, let's buy some fried melon seeds!
" Already know other hawkers.
When they were selling fish noodle soup, the hawkers who set up stalls nearby came to buy fish noodle soup, and Zhizhi even asked them to pour an extra spoonful of soup and give them an extra piece of fish. Now she asks someone to buy stir-fried melon seeds, and they also give her half-buy and half-free. It was agreed to weigh two catties of fried melon seeds, but in the end, an extra catty of boiled peanuts was given...
Mr. Fu led his wife to guard the entrance of the cinema.
Seeing Zhizhi, Mr. Fu quickly waved his hands, "Zhizhi! This way, this way!"
Zhizhi went over to greet them, "Hello, Uncle Fu, hello, Aunt Fu."
Mrs. Fu has silver hair and a cane. She looks a few years older than Mr. Fu. As soon as she saw Zhizhi, she showed a surprised expression, and then stepped forward to say hello to Zhizhi, "Comrade Zhizhi, I have heard what the old man said... from now on, we, Mingyu, will cause you trouble!"
Zhizhi Zhi smiled and said, "No trouble, he's quite nice."
ââ Fu Mingyu may be arrogant and lazy, but his nature is not bad, at least he is an honest and responsible person.
Mrs. Fu exchanged a look with her husband.
The old lady nodded repeatedly, and said to Zhi Zhi: "Old Fu has already told me, Comrade Zhi Zhi, don't worry, in the next three years, I promise not to ask anything related to Fu Mingyu! Of course, if If there is anything you want us to know..."
"I will let him write to you every month, and you will know how his life is on Seagull Island," Zhizhi said with a smile, "He went to labor, to work, not to reform through labor..." "What
I'm worried about now is that if Comrade Fu Mingyu doesn't want to leave the island in the next three years, you may blame me." Zhizhi half-jokingly half-seriously said.
Mr. Fu, "I just hope he doesn't stay at home and piss his mother to deathâ"
Mrs. Fu slapped his wife and corrected: "We hope that Fu Mingyu can become a useful person! If he If he can become an indispensable screw on Seagull Island, then he will stay there forever, and we... are also proud of him!" After
speaking, the old lady Fu sighed again, "What I'm worried about... Comrade Zhi, you can't subdue this kid!"
"I won't subdue him, we are comrades and partners!" Zhi Zhi laughed.
Li Shu silently acted as the background board, feeling very unhappy.
While talking, it was almost time for everyone to make an appointment to watch a movie.
Hong Hehe, Li Qingyu, Tao Rongye, and Chen Yuejin arrived one after another. After all, they are all young people in their early twenties. When they go out for a stroll, they buy all kinds of snacks except for some necessary daily necessities.
Hong Hehe weighed two catties of brown sugar and held it in his hand, and said happily: "From now on, every month when I make that ..., it would be great to drink a bowl of brown sugar water!" mouthed.
Then Hong Hehe generously said to Zhizhi and Li Qingyu: "From now on, if you have stomach pains, just come to me! I'll make brown sugar water for you to drink!"
Li Qingyu covered her mouth and smiled, and she also showed the things she was carrying in her hand. "I bought milk powder! It's almost the expiry date, so it's cheap... usually a bag costs 1.8 yuan, but today I bought 6 bags and it only cost 4 yuan! We drink milk every day when we go back, and it must be before the expiration date." Drink up all these six bags of milk powder!"
Tao Rongye also came over, and opened his messenger bag for Zhizhi to see, "Yuejin and I went to the hospital and were prescribed some cold medicine, antipyretics, gastrointestinal medicine and anti-inflammatory Medicines... I thought that half a year ago, the dozen or so of us spent all the medicines you brought from our hometown, so there shouldnât be too many? These can be prepared frequently.â Zhi Zhi praised Tao Rongye, âItâs still
you Think carefully! Wait for Tiantian to come back later, and let her reimburse you!"
Hong Hehe asked again, "Has Tiantian not come back yet?"
ââGao Tiantian, Long Qiang and Yu Lu went to buy cloth and participated with everyone The leather shoes to be worn in the performance are probably not so fast.
So Zhizhi introduced the Fu couple to everyone.
One after another, everyone is here.
But Long Qiang, Gao Tiantian and Yu Lu didn't come for a long time...
Until the opening song started playing in the movie theater, Zhi Zhi had to let the other partners go in first, and she waited at the door with Li Shu and Fu's couple .
Finally, Gao Tiantian and the three of them arrived late.
ââThe three of them ran all the way, flushed, panting but empty-handed?
Zhizhi asked in surprise, "Didn't you buy the cloth?"
"Yes, I did!" Gao Tiantian only had time to say these words before she was out of breath.
Long Qiang laughed and said: "There are too many pieces of cloth, it's too eye-catching to bring them here..."
Yu Lu answered, "So let's send the things back to Baping's sister-in-law's house first..."
Zhi Zhi said strangely: " How much did you buy?"
Gao Tiantian said with a smile: "A lot! Let's not talk about Zhizhi, let's go in and watch a movie! Later, you went to Baping's sister-in-law's house and saw those cloths...you will know!" Li Shu
also Said: "Yes, yes, let's go in first, the movie has already started."
Zhizhi kept an eye out, and walking at the end, she saw that the Fu couple took out more than a dozen bits and pieces that looked old and new. The different movie tickets were counted to the ticket inspector one by one, and if they were not enough, they took out food stamps and cash to redeem them.
Chapter 103
For Zhi Zhi -
she has already seen the third sister's movie, and she watched the night version, the light and shadow effects are much better. At this moment, the sky is bright, and the projected light beam is actually not very clear when it hits the screen, and it looks very eye-catching.
Zhi Zhi slowly peeled and ate the boiled peanuts.
Li Shu sat beside her, peeled peanuts with her, and chatted in a small voice without saying a word.
It talks about the customs and customs that Li Shu experienced when he went on missions in other provinces.
Itâs inconvenient to go out in this era, especially for long distances. Through Li Shuâs sharing, it is also very interesting to experience the customs and customs that I have never seen before.
The two of them slowly peeled the peanuts while chatting in small voices. After eating half a catty of boiled peanuts...the movie was over.
The partners are content.
Especially the uncles and grandpas on Zhengyi Island, they are all very excited, not only discussing the plot of Liu Sanjie enthusiastically, but also humming along with the classic folk song in the movie "I don't have a good tea and rice today, sing a folk song to respect my relatives Respect for relatives"...
They are illiterate, but they remember the lyrics very accurately, but the tune is messed up, which makes people feel excited and funny.
Everyone walked out of the cinema talking and laughing. Zhi Zhi and Mr. Fu made an appointment to leave, and said openly: "We didn't have a letter of introduction when we came, and we didn't have money to buy a bus ticket. We came here by boat. So We are going to leave, just like when we came here, we will leave by our own boat... Tonight at 10 o'clock sharp, wait at the entrance of Liujia Village diagonally opposite the family compound of the municipal party committee." Then she told Mrs. Fu, "There is no need to bring it to
Fu Mingyu. There are too many things, just a few sets of clothes, towels, soap, and other bedding, and we have everything else." The
Fu couple nodded repeatedly.
Both sides left separately.
Zhizhi and the others returned to Liu Baping's house.
Everyone cooked their lunch and started to prepare their luggage.
Zhizhi saw Gao Tiantian's spoils all morning - more than fifty pieces of cloth! ! !
It's really red, green, white, black, gray...all kinds of thick and thin materials!
Everyone was stunned.
Zhizhi was also taken aback, "Where did you get so much cloth?"
Gao Tiantian said, "This is the processed product that the cloth factory has piled up for two or three years. It is said that it was soaked by the flood that year... The moldy ones were thrown away, and the ones that were in better condition were sold at a discount as employee benefits. The rest, the color was not good and people picked them out, and the rest couldnât be sold..."
Yu Lu also said: "We originally bought cloth at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative. After buying the cloth for performing on stage, Tiantian said that there were cloth heads for processing at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative. We went to pick a few pieces, and an older sister said she was cloth. The factory has a whole bundle of processed cloth, and asked us if we want it... We followed her to the cloth factory, only to see so much inventory."
Long Qiang said: "We also bargained with her...she asked for one yuan A piece of cloth, we got 40 yuan and 50 pieces of cloth, and asked her to help deliver the goods to Liujia Village. She asked the small truck in the factory to take us here. We did not let the car enter the village, but the three of us I walked back and forth about ten times to bring the cloth back!"
Gao Tiantian said to Zhizhi again: "I inspected these cloths there, and the quality is not bad... It's just that the color is a bit rustic, and it's true that it has been stored for a long time. It smells musty. Itâs okay, weâll just wash the cloth before we cut it.â After
a pause, Gao Tiantian said in a low voice, âI mainly think that⦠these 50 bolts of wide cloth, according to Considering the figure of an ordinary adult, one piece of cloth can make eight long-sleeved tops, and about five pairs of trousers... There are a total of 200 people on Zhengyi Island, and each of them happens to have a suit of clothes!
" The head of the family also cast a surprised look at Gao Tiantian and Zhizhi.
Grandpa with braids looked even more frightened.
Hong Hehe laughed loudly, "But look at these cloths... a lot of them are cloth heads! There are so many uncles and grandpas on Justice Island..."
"We like calico clothes too!" Braided Grandpa said excitedly.
Hong Hehe still found it unbelievable, so he pointed to the cloth and said, "Besides, 250 sets of clothes and pants, so there are 500 pieces in total. ?â
Gao Tiantian bit her lip and did not speak.
Grandpa Braid shouted excitedly, "We can also learn to cut clothes! I have already learned how to knit sweaters, so what are you afraid of sewing clothes!"
Gao Tiantian said to Hong Hehe: "You are worried, I am buying clothes. I already thought of it when I announced it, but it doesn't matter, Zhizhi will figure out a way."
Zhizhi couldn't laugh or cry.
ââWhat's going on with Tiantian, do you regard her as an omnipotent god?
However, as soon as she saw the cloth Gao Tiantian bought, Zhizhi already had a plan in her heart.
ââThese 50 pieces of cloth can be given to the uncles and grandpas on Justice Island. But the premise is that they must... put into work.
Zhizhi had been busy with the construction of Seagull Island before, but now it is the end of the year, and the New Year will be celebrated in two months, and spring plowing will be considered as soon as the new year is over... Zhizhi decided to use these cloths to motivate the residents of
Justice Island A reward for willingness to farm.
With so many supplies all of a sudden, it really made Zhi Zhi happy and worried at the same time.
ââThe rice, beans, and other grains that were traded, exchanged, and bought back were worth eight or nine hundred catties!
ââAll kinds of footwear, daily necessities, etc. have packed six big burdens!
ââIn addition, everyone brought their own bedding and a change of clothes when they came here...
Now there are 50 more pieces of cloth!
"Oh my god! I'm afraid this trip won't last!" Zhizhi raised her forehead.
The head said: "Don't be afraid, I will find someone to move it."
She said to Zhizhi again: "You guys take a nap!"
Zhizhi thought about it, she had never had a good solution in terms of exerting strength, so she simply obeyed the arrangement of the head of the family and went back to the house with her friends Li hit the floor to catch up on sleep.
Everyone slept together until after seven o'clock in the evening before being woken up and told them to get up for dinner.
Everyone rubbed their eyes and got up, and Zhizhi found that Liu Baping and his wife had returned with the two young ones, and they were excited, talking to the big boss about how they went to set up a stall today.
"...People are easy to get along with, and they all say that our fish soup noodles are delicious! Yesterday we cooked soup at home, and the train station made up the soup six times in one morning...But we also know that the situation yesterday was not good. Itâs the same! The main reason is that Zhizhi and the others taught Tang Wu a lesson, and the common people were so happy to join them; besides, yesterday was the first day of selling fish noodle soup, and the common people were curious about the freshness!â âIsnât it rushing
today In Weiji, there are obviously not as many people who came to buy noodle soup as yesterday, and only fifty or sixty bowls were sold from morning to afternoon. I thought, this is the normal sales volume...I also discussed with Lao Wen, From now on, we will only do breakfast and lunch business. After all, when itâs dinner time, no one wants to eat soup noodles, and prefers to eat steamed rice and fried rice noodles. As for us, we go out early in the morning and come back after lunch. Only the work can be taken care of, and the children have to be disciplined!"
"The boss, Lao Wen and I have already settled the accounts. This bowl of fish soup noodles sells for 20 cents, and sixty bowls a day is 12 yuan. This bowl Two taels of flour are used for the noodles, twelve catties of noodles are used for sixty bowls of noodles, and twenty cents for a catty of flour is two yuan and four..." "
Adding the price of the sea fish, four cents for a catty of sea fish,... For a bowl of fish noodle soup, I put one piece of two or two pieces, one catty of fish meat is enough for five bowls, and sixty bowls is 12 catties of fish meat, plus the fish head, fish bone and fish tail at the bottom of the soup, at least two fish are needed every day A fish that weighs about ten catties. A fish that weighs twenty catties is eight yuan."
"Based on selling 60 bowls of fish noodle soup every day, I earn a total of 12 yuan, the cost of flour is reduced by 2 yuan 4, and the cost of fish is 8 yuan, which means that I can still have 1 yuan and 60 cents left every day! Not to mention , the business will be even better when we go to fairs on weekends! After this month, we may earn fifty or sixty yuan! Itâs simply better than the job workers in state-owned factories!" Liu Baping said
. The face is beaming.
"Master, I will trouble you in the future. Try to find a way to send us two big fish every day...you don't need to send them to Liujia Village, just let me pick up your boat at the mouth of the sea." Liu Baping said vigorously, " â¦Let Lao Wen send eight yuan a day, we have fish, you have money, in the future, uncles and uncles want to buy clothes and shoes, go to the hospital to see illnesses, etc., and donât worry about having no money "
The head said, "I'll give you three fish. You have a lot of children, and you need some meat to grow up..." "
Two fish is enough! We usually make fish bone soup, and they eat it too. .â Liu Baping said.
"Three."
"Two or two, two is enough!"
"Four."
"Ah...well, three, no more than half! Master, you will collect money, right? If you don't I donât want fish for the money!â
âGive three fish, and get two.â
âNo, no, no, then you have to charge three.â
âFour.â
âOkay, well, from now on, youâll let people fish every day. Send three big fish, I'll pay for two big fish, so it's all right..."
Zhi Zhi hurriedly finished a bowl of rice amidst the arguing between the boss and Liu Baping.
Today's dinner is relatively simple.
The staple food is enough white rice, and the main dish is stir-fried Chinese cabbage with chili, plus half a salted egg per person.
The main reason was that most of the ingredients had been used up. When Long Qiang and Tao Rongye were making dinner, Liu Baping and his wife hadn't come back yet, so Long Qiang had Liu Baping's eldest daughter go to the vegetable field to pick four Chinese cabbages and another Some chili came back, and everyone dealt with it indiscriminately.
After dinner, it was completely dark.
Around nine o'clock, someone came to call at Liu Baping's house.
Liu Baping went to open the door, said a few words to the other party, and then let the other party in.
There were a dozen or so people on the other side, both men and women, and everyone was in their prime of life. The first person was a middle-aged woman who was neatly tidied up. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the head of the house, her eyes lit up, and she called out "Tang Niang"... Her eyes were moist and her voice was choked
. .
The head of the family still sat imposingly, with a very indifferent expression.
Zhizhi guessed that these people should be the ones called by the boss to help carry things.
"Zhizhi, come here." The head said softly.
Zhi Zhi passed by.
The head of the family pointed to the middle-aged woman and said to Zhizhi: "Her name is Xiaohong."
Then he pointed to Zhizhi and said to Xiaohong: "Her name is Bie Zhizhi, and she is seventeen this year."
Liu Baping whispered to Zhizhi: " Don't listen to the head of the family... don't mistake her generation, you call her Aunt Hong, her name is Liu Hong, and she is the women's director of our village." The head of the family said with a half-smile: "She can still be of the wrong generation
. ? She regards me as her younger sister... In her eyes, I'm still a child!"
Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled.
As everyone knows, after hearing this, Liu Hong and Liu Baping watched Zhizhi up and down, left, right, and right for a long time...
She exchanged a look, revealing a thoughtful expression.
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, the head of the family was ready to leave.
There are 22 people from Zhizhi's side, plus 13 people brought by Liu Hong, a total of 35 people. Everyone was carrying, carrying, carrying, and carrying all kinds of things, and carrying baskets on their backs...
In addition, Li Shu rode a bicycle to carry things back and forth several times...
Everyone worked together to transport the abundant supplies Shipped out.
Because Zhi Zhi had an appointment with Mr. Fu, he wanted to wait for Fu Mingyu here, so Tao Rongye and Hong Hehe stayed to accompany Zhi Zhi to wait at the entrance of the village.
At around 9:40 in the night, a group of people came hurriedly ahead. But I don't know if it's Zhizhi's illusion, but I always feel that these people feel a little awkward no matter how they look at it.
When the other party got closer, Zhi Zhi recognized that the leader of the other party was Mr. Fu.
But -
soon Zhizhi knew where there was a sense of disobedience.
One of them is being tied up by five flowers?
Taking a closer look, isn't this bound person Fu Mingyu?
His mouth was stuffed with a cloth strip, his hands were tied behind his back, his eyes were wide open, his fair face was flushed red, and his mouth blocked by the cloth strip was yelling angrily, and he still refused to leave. ...
Mr. Fu took the lead, pulling Fu Mingyu with one hand, and holding a thin bamboo branch with the other. He slapped Fu Mingyu lightly from time to time, and shouted softly, "Go! Go!" Mrs. Fu walked behind Fu Mingyu, pushing Fu Mingyu from time to time with the other
hand Next, wiping away tears from time to time with a handkerchief in one hand
, he said weepingly: "Mingyu, I heard that Seagull Island is very good, you should obediently go and accept thought reform!" Brother Fu Mingyu, the little girl in his arms is holding a flashlight.
On the other side was a young woman who presumably was Fu Mingyu's sister-in-law. She was holding a seven or eight-year-old boy in one hand and a flashlight in the other.
Zhi Zhi supported her forehead.
Mr. Fu's eyes were already red, he dragged Fu Mingyu who was staggering forward, and shouted, "Comrade Zhi Zhi, I brought Fu Mingyu here! From now on, you will be killed or cut...it's up to you Let's go!"
"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!" Fu Mingyu angrily expressed his inner feelings at the moment.
Zhizhi said: "Uncle Fu, you don't have to do this, do you?"
The old lady Fu cried, "I can't help it, we told him endless truths, but he just didn't listen...
" Fu Mingyu expressed his anger again.
Zhizhi was very embarrassed, "Uncle Fu, this is really not good!"
Old Master Fu looked around and asked, "Where is your boat, Zhizhi? We will send him to your boat right away."
Zhizhi replied helplessly Said: "It takes an hour to walk from here to get to the mouth of the sea!"
Mr. Fu was very stubborn, "Then let's go now!"
As he said, he took the lead... Randomly found a direction and walked.
"It's not over there, it's over here!" Zhi Zhi pointed the way.
Mr. Fu corrected his direction and walked towards the sea.
Zhizhi tried to persuade them, "...Fu Mingyu is already an adult, Uncle Fu, you should respect his opinion! It's not good to force him like this..." Old Master Fu hated him, "If he doesn't leave
, We two old guys are about to be pissed off by him..."
Mrs. Fu also cried.
Zhi Zhi said helplessly: "Then sister-in-law Fu and the child don't go, it's too far away..."
Brother Fu handed the little daughter in his arms to his wife and said, "Yes, don't go, you have to go It's only an hour. I'll go with my parents."
Mrs. Fu took her daughter, handed the flashlight to her husband, and said, "If you try to persuade your parents, I don't think it's really necessary... ..."
At this time, Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu "betted" that Fu Mingyu had already come to the front, and went the wrong way again. Zhizhi had no choice but to run over to correct the mistake again.
In this way, Zhizhi tried to persuade the old couple of the Fu family all the way, but they didn't listen at all.
As they walked, they ran into Li Shu who was hurrying over on his bicycle.
Zhizhi heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "Li Shu, please persuade... this is not very good."
Li Shu also did not expect to see such a scene, and hurriedly said: "Fu Ju, this is not very good, is it?" With that said, he parked his bicycle aside, and immediately removed the cloth strip stuffed in Fu Mingyu's mouth.
Fu Mingyu immediately cursed angrily.
In the silence and darkness, in this wilderness with no people in all directions, Fu Mingyu's cursing voice was particularly rough and harsh, and the rich vocabulary of cursing was simply unimaginable.
Zhizhi, Li Shu, Tao Rongye and Hong Hehe were all shocked.
Mr. Fu rushed over, snatched the cloth from Li Shu's hand, and stuffed it back into Fu Mingyu's mouth.
Finally -
the world is clear.
Mr. Fu said excitedly: "Anyway, if you don't take him away today...then you take me away!"
Zhi Zhi: ...
No need, really.
Old Madam Fu wiped away tears, "Yes! If you don't accept him, then, then... I will go with you instead!"
Zhizhi looked at Li Shu in embarrassment.
Mr. Fu understood the eye contact between the two young people, and while pushing Fu Mingyu to continue walking towards the beach, he said to Li Shu, "Xiao Li, if you didn't help Uncle Fu, then maybe Uncle Fu will one day Just in front of your leader, I slipped the tongue, saying that you are chasing after other girls so hard..."
"Uncle Fu, I promise you!"
Li Shu was frightened out of his wits, looked at Zhi Zhi with a guilty conscience, and immediately responded.
Zhi Zhi looked at Li Shu suspiciously.
Li Shu pushed his bicycle and silently led the way, thinking that Mr. Fu is really an old fox...
Just like that, all the people came to the mouth of the sea in silence.
At this time, all other people and goods had already boarded the boat and took a step ahead.
There was the last small boat left, with the braided grandfather at the helm and oars, waiting for Zhizhi and the others at the pier.
Grandpa Braid was well-informed, and when he saw Fu Mingyu who was tied up by five flowers, he just glanced at him lightly, without any panic, he just signaled Zhi Zhi to get on the boat quickly, and said, "They have all left first." Zhi
Zhi Zhi had no choice but to board the boat with her friends.
Li Shu took a look at Mr. Fu, and pulled Fu Mingyu, who was tied up, onto the boat.
Brother Fu hesitated to speak, but finally passed a small bundle, a bedding, a water bottle, and a washbasin.
Tao Rongye hesitated for a while, then helped to take it and put it in the boat.
Mr. Fu, Mrs. Fu and Brother Fu looked at Fu Mingyu silently.
As soon as Fu Mingyu boarded the boat, he sat in the boat, writhing crazily like a bug, mumbling... It wasn't
until the braided grandpa drifted away with the penny that Zhizhi heard the three Fu family members on the shore. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Fu, "Fu Mingyu, you are not allowed to come back within three years! If you dare to come back, I will...break your legs!" Mrs. Fu said, "
Mingyu, you don't have to miss Mom too much, you have to listen to Zhizhi! You don't need to come back...don't do it, just write a letter and come back!"
Brother Fu said, "Mingyu, let's relax on Seagull Island first!"
Fu Mingyu yelled angrily.
actually--
Zhizhi felt that it was really not good for the Fu family to do so, but for some reason, she just wanted to laugh.
She unconsciously looked at Li Shu, and found that Li Shu couldn't hold it anymore, turned his head away and smiled, his whole body was trembling.
Look at Tao Rongye and Hong Hehe, they are also secretly laughing?
Zhi Zhi couldn't help laughing either.
Chapter 104
Zhizhi and her friends were sitting on the boat, and the braided grandpa rowed towards the place where the moon was rising with the oars.
There is a faint mist rising, and the visibility is only about ten meters away.
Visibility was low, and Zhizhi looked around, but was shrouded in thick fog, and could not see anything except a piece of nearby sea water.
Zhizhi couldn't help but asked: "Grandpa with braids, are you going to get lost?"
Grandpa with braids was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "How could you get lost!"
"Then how do you know which direction to go ?" What about it?" Zhizhi asked again.
Grandpa Braid pointed to the sky, "Ask the sky!"
Zhizhi raised her head and saw a sky full of stars.
Ah, do you rely on constellations to identify directions?
In this era of underdeveloped industries, the air quality is excellent and the visibility is excellent. Although thick fog rose around, the sky was still clear and clear.
It's been almost a year since Zhi Zhi came to this world, and it's not that she hasn't looked up at the starry night, but never, it seems like it's not as good as this time... the
sky is full of crystal-clear stars shining like broken diamonds, Embedded in the ink-stained night sky, this beautiful scenery deeply moved Zhizhi.
The friends on the same boat were also stunned when they saw the pleasing beauty.
Even Fu Mingyu, who fell into the boat with his hands tied behind him and a rag stuffed in his mouth, was stunned by the beautiful scenery and forgot to struggle for a moment.
"This is too beautiful!" Zhizhi admired.
Grandpa with braided hair laughed out loud, and suddenly sang a ballad in a very vicissitudes of life, "Seven politics, four more than twenty-eight, Suzaku Xuanwu is located in the southeast... Jing Gui Liu Xing Chun Qingyu, Jiao Kang Di Fang Xia Lei Jing... ..." (Note)
His singing voice is melodious and vicissitudes, and the cadence is constant. It can be heard that this should be an ancient ballad about stars and directions, and weather omens that have been passed down from ancient times.
Zhi Zhi was fascinated by it.
Li Shu glanced at Fu Mingyu who was lying on the bottom of the cabin, and tore off the cloth strip stuffed in his mouth.
Or it was because the scenery was so beautiful and Grandpa Braid's songs were so nice, Fu Mingyu didn't move or make a fuss.
Li Shu then untied Fu Mingyu's hands.
Now, Fu Mingyu was completely free.
He seemed to have come to his senses, sat up excitedly, and was about to yell at himâ
"Huh lahâ"
There was a splash of water, and someone was splashing in the sea and clung to the boat.
Fu Mingyu's anger suddenly turned into fearâit was late at night, and the surroundings had been quiet just now, so it couldn't be... a water ghost, right?
He instantly turned pale.
Then I heard Zhizhi happily shout "Tangtang"? ? ?
He took a closer look, and under the bright and clear moonlight, someone really emerged from the water, with a pair of snow-white and beautifully shaped hands embracing the side of the boat... Following Zhizhi's melodious cry like silver bells
, The black figure raised its head, revealing the charming and bright face of a woman, and smiled brightly at Zhizhi.
Fu Mingyu saw a...
woman who was more beautiful than Zhizhi!
The woman propped up her hands, with a light and graceful figure, and jumped onto the boat with one leap.
Taking a closer look, she was wearing a wet close-fitting black dress, which perfectly displayed her slender figure. It's strange to say that she is completely different from the slender and beautiful Zhi Zhi, she is a fit and plump beauty, she still has a lot of weight when she jumps on the boat, not to mention her light body, the boat moves steadily It was steady, and Fu Mingyu didn't even feel the slightest extra shaking.
Zhi Zhi was not at all surprised by the sudden appearance of the head of the family.
After all, when they came, the whole fleet relied on the master to dive into the water, avoiding hidden reefs and shoals, so that they could go retrograde and enter the estuary smoothly. Now that the entire fleet is leaving, it is estimated that it is also the team led by the head of the diving team.
That's right -
Zhi Zhi loves her very much.
So he immediately found towels and other things from his luggage, and wiped the head of the head... The head of the house
did not object to Zhi Zhi rubbing her hair, but when he saw that Zhi Zhi wanted to wipe her wet clothes , she stopped Zhi Zhi, and said lightly: "No need, I have to go into the water later."
Fu Mingyu's eyes lit up.
ââThe voice of the big beauty is also nice, clear and lingling.
He was a little unwilling to be ignored by the big beauty, so he said unconvinced: "Hey, don't you...introduce yourself?"
Zhizhi and the other friends were all stunned.
Fu Mingyu stared closely at the big boss, and stammered: "I, my name is Fu Mingyu, I am twenty-four years old..."
The big boss glanced at him lightly and ignored him.
Zhi Zhi looked at Fu Mingyu, then at the head of the household, and suddenly understood what was going on, and couldn't help but smile.
The head of the family gave Zhi Zhi a reproachful look, and said, "Just now you said you want to put a tarpaulin on me?"
Zhi Zhi quickly turned out the tarpaulin and put it on the head of the house.
ââThe tarpaulin is used as a roof to keep out the wind and rain when everyone supports the noodle stall. It has no function of keeping people warm, but it can prevent the cold wind from attacking.
The head of the family was sitting in the cabin, covered with a tarpaulin, half of his thick hair was dried by Zhizhi, and then blown by the sea breeze... almost completely dried, and she didn't bother to take care of it, so she let it hang softly on her forehead In the ear, she vividly expressed her lazy and charming temperament.
Fu Mingyu stared at this mature and glamorous beauty, feeling his mouth was dry and his heart beating wildly.
Just at this time, Hong Hehe heard Fu Mingyu ask why everyone didn't introduce themselves... So she replied: "My name is Hong Hehe, I'm seventeen this year... no, I'm eighteen this year." Fu Mingyu turned a deaf ear to
it .
Hong He lowered his head in embarrassment.
Zhi Zhi still remembered the agreement with the head of the family, so she asked, "Are you going to take me fishing today?"
The head of the family nodded.
"Is it difficult to fish?" Zhizhi asked curiously.
The head of the family thought for a moment, "I think fishing is easy, just like...you think it is easy to make money in business."
Zhizhi understood in seconds.
Hong Hehe couldn't help but whispered: "It's not easy to make money in business! It's because she is Zhi Zhi that it seems easy to make money in business."
Zhi Zhi was a little embarrassed by the compliment.
The head of the family laughed and said: "So out of the 200 or so people on Justice Island, there is only one person who knows the way, like me. Among the ten people on Seagull Island, there is only one person who knows how to do business, Zhizhi." Fu Mingyu immediately
asked The master said, "So you are from Justice Island! I, I... Hahaha, is Justice Island and Seagull Island far apart? I, I am from Seagull Island." Zhizhi looked at Fu Mingyu in
surpriseââ He resisted so fiercely just now, but as soon as he knew that the boss was from Justice Island, he immediately admitted that he was from Seagull Island?
The head of the family ignored Fu Mingyu at all.
But Fu Mingyu didn't seem to feel any embarrassment, and just kept staring at the head of the family.
Hong Hehe answered Fu Mingyu in a low voice: "Justice Island and Seagull Island are originally one island. During the dry season every year, the land road between the two islands is exposed and they can be connected on foot. During the flood season, they become two independent islands. The small islands are about 40 or 50 meters away!"
Fu Mingyu didn't even look at Hong Hehe, and grinned as he stared at the boss.
Today's starry night is extraordinarily beautiful, even the head of the family praised, "Today's starlight is very good."
Zhizhi simply curled up and lay in the cabin, so that she could see the brilliant starry sky with her eyes open.
The little friends stopped talking, imitating Zhi Zhi's appearance, curled up and lay down, staring at the beautiful starry sky.
Today's sea breeze is not strong, and of course the boat will occasionally drift with the wind and waves, but generally speaking, it moves very smoothly.
About two hours later, the melodious singing of other uncles and grandpas came faintly from the front.
The head of the boat sat on the bow with his knees bent, fiddled with his hair casually, and said lightly: "...here we are."
Li Shu said softly: "Zhizhi, get up and watch."
Zhizhi sat up curiouslyââ
she was startled. shocked.
God!
This, this...
Hong Hehe, Tao Rongye and Fu Mingyu also sat up quickly, stunned by the scene in front of them!
It turned out that, at some point, the boat they were on had sailed into a... brilliant and colorful sea area.
The stars in the sky are brilliant, and in the sea... there are all kinds of luminous small fish and shrimps floating, and there may be luminous seaweed or something!
The first reaction in Zhizhi's mind was the plot of a movie "The Fantasy Drifting of Juvenile Pai" she had watched in later generations - when the protagonist's boat drifted into the depths of the ocean, what he saw was like the twinkling stars in the night sky The sea surface is simply beautiful, beyond words.
But Zhizhi always thought it was a movie special effect!
Until now, she has seen such a magnificent and beautiful scene with her own eyes...
She finally understands why the bosses always come out to spear fish in the middle of the night!
The seabed, which was as beautiful as daytime, was completely different from the dark and icy seabed she had imagined.
The boss said to Grandpa Braid: "Bring some lobster and cuttlefish to Zhizhi, she has never eaten it before."
Zhizhi subconsciously wanted to say that I had eaten it...
but she didn't say it
. Grandpa Braid gave a strange laugh and threw the boat He took off his coat, exposed his bony chest, grabbed a harpoon and jumped into the sea.
Zhi Zhi hurriedly looked down the side of the boat, the sea water was extremely clear and transparent, and there were groups of luminous fish and shrimps floating in the sea, which made the bottom of the sea as bright as day.
ââShe can clearly see the seabed rocks about ten or twenty meters deep, the gorgeous coral reefs, the sea anemones floating with the ocean currents, and all kinds of beautiful little fish hiding in them, poking their heads, And shoals of shoals of sand tip fish swimming here and there...
What kind of fairy land is this!
Zhi Zhi could even see several uncles and grandpas diving into the sea with a harpoon, some were spearing fish, some were touching shells, some were just playing, poking fish with their hands from time to time...there was another , and couldn't see who it was, he turned a big turtle lying on the bottom of the sea so that its belly was upside down, and then ran away...
Zhizhi couldn't help laughing.
"Bang!"
A soft sound brought Zhi Zhi back to her senses.
Zhizhi took a closer look, and there was a fat cuttlefish in the cabin!
This cuttlefish is also luminous, and its edge even emits a beautiful light like electric current.
Zhizhi asked: "Did this be caught by Grandpa Braid?"
The head of the family said "Yes", holding a dagger in one hand, and started to quickly deal with the cuttlefish.
Cut the feet and remove the head, pull out the cartilage, grab the processed fish body and reach out to rinse it in the sea water, then cut off a piece, put it in your mouth and chew it.
The head of the house showed a satisfied expression, then cut off a piece and handed it to Zhi Zhi.
She originally thought that Zhi Zhi might show a disgusted and shocked expression... She didn't expect Zhi Zhi to take the cuttlefish meat and stuff it into her mouth without hesitation?
Zhizhi ate the freshest and most delicious fish that she had ever eaten in her life!
ââNot only does the squid meat have no fishy smell at all, but it reveals an extremely refreshing taste. The meat is very tender and smooth, but it is also a bit chewy.
Zhizhi closed her eyes, showing a look of enjoyment.
The other friends were very curious when they saw it.
Hong Hehe said in a low voice: "Master, give us a try too?"
At this time, Grandpa Braid must have caught other seafood and threw it up again...
The master simply took the remaining cuttlefish meat Handed the dagger and dagger to Li Shu, and said: "Don't let Zhi Zhi use the knife, be careful not to hurt your hands."
Li Shu took it, sliced the cuttlefish meat, and distributed it to the friends one by one.
Zhi Zhi ate three or four pieces of cuttlefish meat in a row, and then stopped - because the boss gave her a lobster! And after peeling the shell, he directly handed the dug out transparent lobster meat to her.
Zhi Zhi saw the color of this lobster, and knew that it was the top blue-footed flower dragon of later generations.
She didn't hesitate at all, as soon as she took it from the master's hand, she stuffed it into her mouth.
The fresh and tender lobster meat is soft, glutinous and smooth, with a slight saltiness of the natural sea water, fresh and delicious, with a hint of milk flavor.
Soon, Zhizhi killed a lobster meat as thick as an arm by himself.
She also saw a lot of shrimp yellow in the shrimp head shell...
It's a pity, raw shrimp yellow is very fishy. If you can take it home, take out the shrimp roe to steam eggs or fried rice, the taste is simply amazing!
Zhizhi killed two big lobsters in one go!
Of course, this is also because the lobster looks big, but there is not much meat to eat.
After peeling two lobsters for Zhi Zhi, the head of the family no longer gave them to her, and Hong Hehe, Tao Rongye, Li Shu and Fu Mingyu peeled the rest one each.
Later, Grandpa Braid caught a few more lobsters, and the master asked Li Shu to learn how to handle them. She stood up, tore off the tarpaulin around her body, smiled at Zhizhi, took a harpoon and jumped into the seaââ
Chapter 105
Zhi Zhi lay on the side of the boat, staring at the head of the house intently.
ââI saw the master in black and snow-skinned swimming in the brilliant deep sea of Xinghan, on the contrary, he looked particularly conspicuous.
She has a graceful figure, swimming in the sea with a harpoon, her movements are calm and unhurried, like a flying fairy flying into the sky. After slowly diving to a depth of more than ten meters, she clung to a clump of coral reefs with her hands, bent down to have a look, and suddenly exerted strength and plunged down!
The nearby sea water suddenly became slightly turbid, and soon calmed down slowly.
Zhizhi leaned over the side of the boat and looked carefullyâ
I saw that the head of the boat chased a few steps away in a calm manner, and picked up a big fish that had been pierced by the harpoon... She directly pierced the fish's body through the harpoon, and it turned out to be more than one meter long. The long harpoon has an iron chain at the end, and the end of the iron chain is a horizontal iron rod.
The big boss dragged this cute and stupid blue fish that weighed at least twenty catties, and continued to move forward.
After a while, she found another lobster and stabbed it with a harpoon!
Next, the big master forked a big eel with a particularly ferocious pattern on its body - the body of the big eel was as thick as Zhizhi's thigh, and it was at least two meters long. Once the harpoon was caught, the whole body It entangled and twisted like a snake... It made people feel tight when they saw it.
But the head of the family didn't seem to be afraid, and she still looked calm and breezy. She seemed to be holding something in her hand, and she stabbed the moray eel a few times, and the moray eel stopped moving.
The head continued to drag the harpoon that was already strung with big Tsing Yi (fish), blue-legged flower dragon (lobster) and conger eel, and wandered on the bottom of the sea for a while like strolling in a garden... Then she forked
another A big fish with black and taupe stripes on its skin...
After about ten minutes passed, the big master harvested a total of four kinds of seafood, and then he calmly held a harpoon, strung a bunch of different kinds of seafood, and brought them from the bottom of the sea. Lift off slowly.
Zhi Zhi was dumbfounded!
She really felt like she was the master spearfishing, just like she was picking wild vegetables in the back mountain of Seagull Island... Just bend your face and pull the wild vegetables out of the soil.
Also, she had heard people say before that the head of the family is very good at water, can hold her breath for more than ten minutes, and can kill prey heavier than her own body weight.
Sure enough, the reputation is well-deserved.
At this time, the big master has risen to the surface of the sea.
She clasped the side of the boat with one hand, and told Zhizhi: "Zhizhi, you go to the stern...the tails of these fish are poisonous, don't touch them."
Zhizhi immediately huddled together with her friends to the stern.
I saw that the head of the boat should have hung the harpoon somewhere on the bow first, and she supported the side of the boat with one hand first, and turned over. Then I went to get the harpoon, and dragged the heavy harpoon onto the boat with great effort...
When the prey were in the water, due to the dragging force of the sea, the big master didn't feel heavy when he held it alone. Once out of the water, the four kinds of seafood weighed more than 100 catties, so that when she threw them into the cabin, not only did there be a loud "bang", but Zhizhi and her friends who were hiding at the stern were clearly I felt that the boat sank immediately!
Everyone stared dumbfounded at the seafood in the boat.
Especially the colorful moray eel.
Hong Hehe was very scared, "Oh my god, is this a snake?"
The head of the family comforted Hong Hehe, "It's okay, this is a sea eel, not a snake, and it is dead, so it won't bite people." At
this time, people around the boat Heads popped up all of a suddenâ
I don't know which uncle and grandpa said with a smile, "I heard that Zhizhi has never eaten lobster?"
Then countless blue-footed flower dragons were thrown into the cabin where Zhizhi was. .
After the uncles and grandpas finished feeding the lobsters, they turned around again and dived into the sea again.
Zhizhi looked at the dozen or so lively blue-footed flower dragons in the cabin, and smiled from ear to ear.
Li Shu has automatically and consciously helped Zhizhi peel the lobster shells.
The head of the family crouched in the cabin and called Li Shu to give her the dagger.
After getting the dagger, she swiftly cut off the venomous spine of a big fish's tail, threw it into a small wooden bucket with a lid, and then began to dispose of the fish. Cut off the thick skin of the fish, then deboned it, put the white fish meat into sea water, rinsed it clean, took it out again, cut it into pieces weighing about three or four catties each with a dagger, and threw them one by one to Zhi Zhi and her little ones. Partners.
"It's over here, it's all right." The head said.
Zhi Zhi grabbed the fish and moved it over, not forgetting to take a bite first.
ââThe absolutely fresh fish is so tender that it melts in the mouth, and there is no fishy smell at all.
Zhizhi took two more bites.
Seeing Zhizhi's gluttonous mouth eating fish, the head of the family couldn't help but smile, "He is a small person, delicate and delicate, but he is not picky about his food, so he can support himself." Then, the head of the family opened another small
wood He dug out a white stone-like thing and a tree root-like thing from the inside, and handed it to Zhi Zhi, "This is a salt bowl, take it and rub it on the fish meat, and the fish meat will be clean." Itâs salty. This is horseradish, donât eat the skin, itâs muddy. Ask Li Shu to break the horseradish and share a little with each of you, and then eat the salted fish with the horseradish. Same."
Horseradish? ? ?
Zhi Zhi's eyes lit up!
She took a horseradish that looked like a yam stick and looked at it...
she didn't recognize it.
It looks very ordinary.
She handed the horseradish to Li Shu, then took a white salt bowl and wiped it on her own fish, and then handed it to Hong Hehe. Hong Hehe also imitated Zhi Zhi's appearance and wiped the fish with a salt bowl, then handed the salt bowl to Tao Rongye. After Tao Rongye wiped the salt bowl, he passed it to Li Shu, and after Li Shu finished wiping the salt bowl, he handed it to Fu Mingyu.
In the end, Fu Mingyu also followed everyone's example, wiped the fish with a salt bowl, mustered up the courage to pass the salt bowl to the head, and said to the head with a red face, "I, I, I... I'm done."
The head of the family ignored him and concentrated on dealing with the big moray eel.
Fu Mingyu was embarrassed.
Zhi Zhi took a bite of the salty sashimi, and suddenly felt that the taste was completely different again!
The sashimi and lobster meat I ate before are all freshened by the slightly salty taste of the meat itself, and more of a sweet taste, but the taste is actually very bland and requires careful tasting.
Now the fish has a salty taste, which is very suitable for chewing and swallowing.
Every time you take a big mouthful of extremely tender fish meat, you can feel the cold-extracted fat in the fish meat, which almost melts in your mouth... At
this time, Li Shu tore open the horseradish with his hands and distributed a piece of meat to everyone. A small piece... Zhi Zhi took the horseradish, carefully bit off a small piece, chewed and then spit out the root, and quickly took a bite of the sea salt-flavored fish... Well
, Isn't this the wasabi and soy sauce dipped in sashimi of later generations!
Even because the fish in the mouth is too fresh and delicate, and the original taste of sea salt and horseradish is very rough, the contrast between these fresh and tender ingredients and the original rough seasoning will create an incomparably magical taste bud enjoyment.
Zhi Zhi squinted her eyes with an expression of enjoyment.
While dealing with the conger eels, the head of the house paid attention to Zhi Zhi, and couldn't help laughing: "You little girl is very good at eating... Hey Hong Hehe, chew horseradish and spit it out, don't swallow it. Oh, spicy Donât take a big bite at all, itâs very embarrassing.â
It was late, Hong Hehe, who was completely inexperienced, took a bite of horseradish, and was instantly stimulated to tears and snot!
The big boss laughed.
Zhizhi, on the other hand, seriously ate a large piece of fish in her hand with sea salt and horseradish.
During the period, he also accepted countless lobster meat fed by Li Shu...
After the big master finished processing the moray eel, he also sliced the meat and shared it with everyone.
The texture of conger eel sashimi is different from that of other fish. It is not the kind that is delicate and smooth to the point of melting in the mouth, but crisp and raw like eating cucumber cubes. Mixed with sea salt and horseradish at the same time, it is so fresh that it is so delicious that I almost swallowed my tongue.
Not to mention, the uncles and grandpas also touched a lot of shells, conch and so on to feed Zhizhi...
Of course, the uncles and grandpas also shared the rare catches they caught.
An uncle specially gave Zhizhi a huge shell, saying that there might be beautiful beads in it for such a big body. Even if there are no beads, if you eat the shellfish, wash the shells and dry them, they can be used for things like needles and thread.
Zhizhi happily accepted the shell which was bigger than her face, and thanked her uncle earnestly.
When the other uncles and grandpas saw it, they suddenly realizedâthat's right, Zhizhi is a little girl, and she likes such beautiful things!
Since then, apart from the lobsters fed by her uncle and grandpa, Zhizhi also received beautiful conch and shells from time to time...Of course, this is another story.
Zhizhi and her friends had a full meal, and then lay down in the cabin, feeling their bulging belly and looking at the beautiful stars in the sky, sighing comfortably.
She thought to herself: This is the ideal island life!
Unexpectedly, she has been working on the island for more than half a year, and it is only now that she can live a free life of seafood and fish.
Li Shu looked at her, a little worried, "Zhi Zhi, you ate so much raw fish, conch and shells, you will definitely have diarrhea later on." Zhi Zhi also worried, "It's okay, Rong Ye bought it
. Gastrointestinal medicine... But next time we will buy some pagoda sugar (oral deworming medicine for children), mainly because we are afraid that these raw fish will have parasites... hiccup!" After speaking, she couldn't help but hiccupped
.
It was so delicious.
And, Zhi Zhi finally understood why the residents of Justice Island were so lazy.
ââTake Dadangjia as an example. She snorkels once and spends ten cents to fork fish heavier than her own weight. Other uncles and grandpas may not be as good as her, but they are not too bad . So they can really easily support themselves by relying on their kung fu of spearing fish.
So they came to fish, to a greater extent because they were panicked on the island, and they went to the sea to play!
It's fun, and it can easily fill your stomach...
In the long run, how can they have any fighting spirit?
It has to be said that even Zhizhi felt that such a life was carefree, so she understood why the head of the family and these uncles and grandpas were so disgusted with opening up wasteland and farming.
However, Zhizhi remembered the future generations.
In the future, this country will become a big industrialized country, and the environmental pollution will be very serious! Anyway, in Zhizhi's perception, there is absolutely no such beautiful, clean and pure sea area in Huaguo, and the delicious top-quality seafood she ate in later generations basically all came from abroad.
This pure land will cease to exist in a few years.
Looking at such a beautiful starry sky and such a magnificent ocean, Zhizhi's heart is heavy.
If possible, she still wants to fight for this starry sky! Fight for this ocean!
Let future generations of Chinese people not have to go abroad to see such a beautiful starry sky and sea area, and eat such delicious local seafood!
Chapter 106
Zhi Zhi sat down on the boat, resting her head on the side of the boat, looking at the sky full of brilliant stars, she gradually fell asleep.
When she woke up, it was already light.
She is still sleeping in the boat of the boss?
The boat is parked quietly at the pier of Seagull Island.
She quickly got up and took a look again -
Li Shu was sleeping next to her, Hong Hehe was sleeping on the other side of her, behind Li Shu was Tao Rongye, next to Tao Rongye was Fu Mingyu...
and all the boats of the uncles and grandpas... Neatly docked at the pier of Seagull Island, there was nothing that should have filled the cabin, only her little friends huddled in different cabins and fell asleep.
Zhi Zhi lowered her head, and found that she was still covered with a tarpaulinâshe used this tarpaulin to cover the head of the family yesterday.
Zhizhi got up.
As soon as she moved, the boat shook slightly. Li Shu was the first to wake up, and called out "Zhi Zhi", then sat up and looked around, and said, "You're back already?" Then he looked at the boat docked nearby
. The boat let out an "ah" and said, "Uncles and uncles have unloaded all the cargo."
Zhi Zhi jumped off the boat, and Li Shu also jumped offâ
the noise from the two of them woke up the other little friends , everyone rubbed their eyes and sat up from the boat.
Zhizhi hurried up the mountain without caring about the friends behind her.
When they arrived at the camp, Zhi Zhi found that the dormitory doors of Uncle Yao and Uncle Luo were closed.
The warehouse door is also well shut.
However, when she pushed open the warehouse door, she found that the warehouse was already packed to the brim!
The 50 pieces of cloth were stacked neatly, and all of them were placed next to the corner of the wall.
The rice, flour, and various beans purchased this time were also piled up clearly.
All kinds of brand-new Jiefang shoes, cloth shoes, leather shoes, etc. are classified into different big bamboo baskets.
All kinds of daily necessities are too fragmented to be divided, so they are put in the same big bamboo basket,
as well as the bedding of the educated youths. And the small baggage and so on were also neatly placed aside.
Zhizhi was very moved.
She knew that these uncles and grandpas helped them organize, load and unload them, so that they could have a good rest.
Such a good person is no different from the elders who love the younger generation!
The educated youths arrived in twos and threes.
Seeing that the warehouse is full, who doesn't understand what happened!
Li Qingyu sighed: "Uncle Yao and the others are so kind!"
Zhizhi hurried to the kitchen again.
In the kitchen, a thick, milky white fish bone soup is stewed in a large iron pot on the stove. The firewood in the stove has been extinguished, but the fish soup is still half hot... On the shelf beside it, there are twenty or thirty fish bone soup hanging on the shelf
. There are a lot of shrimp heads and shells of blue-footed flower dragons piled up in the corner beside the heavy sea fish, as well as beautiful shells and various snail shells scattered around.
Zhi Zhi knew at a glance that these big sea fish were given by the head and uncles and grandpas.
The pile of lobster heads and shells was the last night after everyone fed the lobsters to her. The head of the family wanted to throw away those lobster heads, but Zhi Zhi muttered a few times, "The porridge with lobster heads is the best"... So the head of the house That left the pile of lobster heads.
There are also a few oversized beautiful shells and snails, some of them have been eaten but the shells are so beautiful that Zhi Zhi is not willing to throw them away... Long Qiang and
Tao Rongye also rushed to the kitchen and saw the soup simmering on the stove , I was so moved that I was speechless.
Zhizhi smiled and said, "It's dawn, let's wash up quickly, and we're going to start rushing to work... There's only less than a week left before the New Year's Day performance. After breakfast today, we're all here to help Tiantian I'm busy, it's best to get the performance costumes done as soon as possible."
Everyone nodded.
Hong Hehe ran over panting, "Zhizhi! Zhizhiâ"
Zhizhi tilted her head to look at Hong Hehe.
Hong Hehe blushed, and said angrily: "Zhizhi! That new Fu Mingyu... refused to come up, and even clamored to go back! I reasoned with him, and he, he cursed! He also said, He just doesn't go to the island, even if he can't swim or row, he just wants to go back... Even if he drowns at the pier, he will never set foot on Seagull Island! Even if he starves to death, he will never eat our seagulls Take a bite of rice!"
Zhi Zhi laughed, "I guess the fish meal last night is still not digested in his stomach, so let him bask in the sun for a while!"
So everyone went to wash and eat on their own. Toilets, boiling water, taking a bath, washing hair and changing clothes.
At around 8 o'clock in the morning, Uncle Luo and Uncle Yao woke up after getting enough sleep...
The educated youth thanked them one after another.
Uncle Luo and the others were at a loss and looked very embarrassed.
Today it was Zhi Zhi's turn to cook, so she used the fish soup made by Uncle Luo and the others to stew a pot of porridge; she also found some potatoes, peeled and cut them into pieces, steamed them in water, pressed them into puree with a spoon, and mixed a little salt And oil, dig out the shrimp yellow from the lobster head and mix it with the potatoes, and finally fill the potatoes into the shrimp head shells and stuff them into the stove for roasting.
When the skin of the potatoes contained in the shrimp head shells is roasted until they are burnt, use bamboo clips to pick them out one by one.
Today's breakfast is a large bowl of fish soup porridge for each person, plus a lobster head baked mashed potatoes.
The fish soup is fresh and not fishy... Zhizhi just made a slight improvement, using rice instead of noodles. The taste of fish soup porridge is quite good, not worse than fish soup hand-rolled noodles.
Eating a bowl of delicious fish porridge with soup and water early in the morning makes the stomach warm and comfortable.
Lobster head baked mashed potatoes is a brand new product for everyone.
Even Uncle Yao and Uncle Luo have never seen such a way of eating.
However, the soft mashed potatoes are delicious in themselves, mixed with the unique salty and slightly fishy taste of shrimp paste, and the skin is baked until slightly burnt and crispy...
it is so delicious!
Everyone has never eaten such potatoes, and they couldn't help but praise them.
Zhizhi pursed her lips and smiled.
Hong Hehe said worriedly: "Zhizhi, do you want to send Fu Mingyu a breakfast?
" "Our Seagull Island does not support idlers. If he does not work, he is not worthy of our food." The sound of
hurried footsteps gradually drifted away.
Humans are social creatures after all.
Come to think of it, Fu Mingyu still wanted to get along with the group, and he yelled a lot, but he rushed over in the end; at this moment, he might have been pissed off by Zhi Zhi's words again.
Zhizhi decided to starve Fu Mingyu first, and then come to set rules for him at lunch time.
After everyone had breakfast and cleaned up the dining room, Gao Tiantian took out the cloth that was specially purchased yesterday.
Regarding the costumes for this performance, everyone agreed that they should not only look outstanding in the performance, but also be able to wear clothes in ordinary times. After all, no one has spare money to buy special costumes for a performance.
So Gao Tiantian chose classic black trousers and white shirts for the male educated youths, and white shirts and floral skirts for the female educated youths.
Everyone sat around the long table in the cafeteria, looking at the various fabrics that Gao Tiantian picked out, their eyes brightened!
The fabric is black fabric with a straight texture, so it goes without saying that it is used to make trousers for male educated youths. Pants made of such a dense material are sure to look decent, and should hold their shape for years to come!
The fabric used to make the white shirt also looks very good. It is not the "really cool" that is commonly seen on the market, but the texture is similar to that of trousers. It has an obvious drape feeling when held in the hand. Take a closer look ...not as transparent as "Really Cool".
Everyone praised Gao Tiantian,
"Tiantian, you really know how to choose clothes!"
"The black and white clothes are really good!"
"It must be very expensive!"
"This kind of clothes when I was in my hometown , only my parents made a suit for each of them, and they only wear them when they go to the banquet! I never thought that I could wear clothes made of such good materials..." "Tiantian, you have a good eye!" Next
,
everyone His eyes were on the batch of fabrics used to make floral skirts for female educated youths.
To everyone's surprise -
this batch is actually the same color, but different colors of fabrics!
There are three types: lavender, pink, and light blue.
The female educated youths became excited all of a sudden, and everyone chirped and said:
"This kind of floral cloth is good. It is the same but not exactly the same. You can tell it is the same batch
at a glance." Can you tell which suit is whose suit!"
"We have six girls in total, three suits...it happens that every two of us wear the same color!" "
Tiantian, I will definitely have the same color as you!"
"Zhizhi, you and I Would you like to wear this blue one?"
"Qingyu, we want this purple one, I've never had a purple floral dress before!"
Zhizhi thought for a while and said, "Didn't Tiantian buy other fabrics yesterday? Let's see if we can make lavender, pink, and light blue fabrics. If we can get all these colors together, we can use Sew some lace with solid-color fabrics, or use solid-color fabrics to make bows and sew them on floral skirts... In this way, the skirt can become more beautiful and more recognizable.â Everyone thinks it makes sense
, Then I went to the warehouse to look at the 50 pieces of cloth purchased yesterday.
These male educated youths have no idea about what style the skirt should be and how to make accessories. They watched silently for a while, and found that they couldn't get in their mouths or help, and finally decided to do farm work.
The female educated youth chattered aside and discussed what style of skirt to make...
Gao Tiantian also brought pencils and letter paper, and drew several styles on the letter paper according to everyone's requirements.
Everyone discussed adding a little detail here, adding a little accessory there... Finally, the style of the white top and skirt was finalized in a hurry.
However, Gao Tiantian hadn't cut clothes by herself for three or four years. She was not sure, and she didn't dare to waste the good material, so she took out one of the 50 pieces of cloth tremblingly, and tried to cut it...
As a result, as soon as she went down with the scissorsâ
with a shake of her hand, she cut off a piece of material!
Gao Tiantian immediately yelled in panic, "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I, I didn't mean it."
Everyone comforted her gently,
"It's okay, Tiantian, this piece of cloth is worthless, you just treat it as Practice your hands, it doesn't matter if you cut it badly." "
Yes, if you cut it badly, it will be broken, it's no big deal, you can cut another piece." "
You are already very good, you can also cut clothes, I can't do anything "
It's okay to be sweet, just try again."
But Gao Tiantian's psychological endurance is not very good. She knows how hard it is for everyone to earn money to buy these cloths. Now she cut it with the scissors as soon as it went down, so don't mention how guilty I am.
And the empathetic comfort of her partners made Gao Tiantian feel a lot of pressure in her heart...
She was silent for a while with tears in her eyes, then suddenly dropped the scissors and ran away crying.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Yu Lu chased her out, "Tiantian! Tiantian..."
Zhizhi said to the other friends, "Let's not put too much pressure on Tiantian, let her calm down for a while."
Hong Hehe said worriedly : "But there is only less than a week left for the art show, and we still have more than a dozen sets of clothes to make, I'm afraid there will be no delay in time!" Just at this time, Uncle
Luo came to the kitchen to get water Drink, heard the girls talking, and still look distressed?
He pondered for a moment, and said, "Go to your braided grandpa, he can cut clothes."
The girls' eyes widened in surprise.
Chapter 107
Zhi Zhi went to the kitchen first, roasted a few lobster heads with mashed potatoes, called the thin monkey to come over, and sent them to Justice Island, gave two to the big master, and gave all the rest to Grandpa Braid, and then helped her bring a message to Braid Grandpa, ask him to come over and do a favor.
The thin monkey complied.
After a while he brought the braided grandpa over.
"What are you looking for?" Braided Grandpa must have just woken up.
Oh no, he may have been called here by the skinny monkey before he woke up. At this moment, there are eye dropsy hanging from the corners of his eyes, and there is still mashed potatoes on his mouth.
Zhizhi said directly, "Grandpa Braid, eleven of us are going to perform on stage, so everyone needs to make new clothes...Tiantian originally knew how to make clothes, but she hasn't done it for a long time. Grandpa with braids, can you help us?"
Grandpa with braids said, "Then look at the fabric."
Zhi Zhi took Grandpa with braids to the cafeteria.
Grandpa with braids looked at the fabric, and then at the dress picture that Gao Tiantian modified based on everyone's opinions...
His expression became more and more serious.
"Zhi Zhi, take me first. If you have soap, use some of it." Braided Grandpa ordered.
Zhizhi took him to wash his hands at the washing table at the door of the bathroom at the back, and gave him a bar of soap. Grandpa with braids was very serious with the soap... first he washed his face, then he rubbed his hands carefully, even the dirt under his nails was cleaned, and then he and Zhizhi went back to the cafeteria .
"Zhizhi, go and call that little girl Tiantian over, give me a hand." Grandpa Braid ordered again.
Hong Hehe ran away and called Gao Tiantian over.
Gao Tiantian's eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she was crying a lot.
Grandpa with braids did not stare into Gao Tiantian's eyes, but instead looked at the girls present, and then told Gao Tiantian, "Tiantian, listen to Grandpa, go and measure your body for He He. You can read Well, measure her figure and write it down."
As he said that, Grandpa Braid asked Hong Hehe, "Hehe, which piece of material does grandpa want to cut for you?"
Hong Hehe immediately asked everyone, "Everyone, let's choose who wears which skirt!"
Li Qingyu was very embarrassed , "Oh, these colors are all beautiful, I, I am too picky! I like every color!" Zhizhi covered her
mouth and smiled: "We should choose according to the order of height."
Everyone suddenly realized , "Yes, yes, yes! Oops, I was so interested in what suit I liked, but I didn't think of this one!"
Then everyone lined up according to height, and chose the suit.
ââHong Hehe is the tallest, with a height of 176; Yu Lu is next, with a height of 170; she chose lavender.
ââFang Lijuan is 165 tall; Gao Tiantian is 163; she chose light blue.
ââZhizhi is 159 tall; Li Qingyu is 157 tall; she chose pink.
Grandpa Braid said, "So it's purple for Hehe, right?"
The girls nodded.
Grandpa with braids pointed to the skirt that Gao Tiantian had drawn before, and said, "You want to make a half-length calico skirt with a solid-color wide-brimmed belt, with a rolled edge...and a double-layered bow at the back, right? ?â
The girls nodded in unison.
"I want it!" Grandpa Braid said, "Tian Tianer, hurry up and measure He He, I will cut a skirt for you today... Try sewing it first, and then I will cut white shirts for you if there is no problem." !"
In fact, the braided grandpa had a fierce look on his face.
He is not tall, the hair on his head and chin is not abundant, and he basically does not grow a beard. The hair on his head is sparse, and he braids it into a thin, about ten centimeters long braid, which is a bit like Aladdin's lamp.
When he was not talking, he stared at people, and his three white eyes, which were inverted triangles, would show a fierce light. The expression on his face is always...a look of ruthless desire to peel off people's skin, cramps, and suck people's blood.
But at this moment, Grandpa with braids has a soft expression.
Especially when he mossed the fabric, picked up the scissors and the canvas stone.
Gao Tiantian didn't know that Grandpa with braids could cut them, so she was a little confused. Zhizhi leaned over and whispered to her, "Grandpa with braids knew how to sew before liberation."
Gao Tiantian suddenly realized, and immediately took a cloth ruler to measure Hong Hehe's body, and recorded it.
In order to let the braided grandpa know the size of Hehe's figure more clearly, Gao Tiantian specially used a pencil to mark out the waist width, waist, hip apron length, skirt hem and other dimensions on the letter paper on which the skirt was drawn.
Next, the braided grandpa measured the length and width of the floral cloth with a cloth ruler, then took the wooden strip and the canvas stone, and drew the line on the floral cloth a few times horizontally and vertically... Grandpa braid took
another He took out the cloth ruler and re-measured the line he had drawn. After confirming that there was no problem, he picked up the scissors and cut the cloth piece neatly.
The braided grandpa picked up the needle and thread, quickly passed the cotton thread through the sewing needle with a pair of rough hands, and then loosely nailed the cloth... In
about half an hour, a "skirt" was sewn.
However, everyone can see that this skirt is not yet a finished product. Because there are no hems in the cloth, the braided grandpa sewed it very rough, probably to make a pattern for Gao Tiantian.
Gao Tiantian nodded repeatedly.
She knew very well that grandpa with braids was teaching her. Now she has a version on hand, as long as Hehe's skirt is used as a version, and other people's skirts are applied to their respective sizes, Gao Tiantian can copy other people's skirts.
Grandpa with braids asked Gao Tiantian if she could make a skirt.
Gao Tiantian nodded seriously, "Thank you, Grandpa Braid."
Then grandpa with braids looked at the style of the women's long-sleeved white shirt painted by Gao Tiantianâthis is a women's long-sleeved long-sleeved shirt with puff sleeves and a small round neck.
The braided grandpa asked Gao Tiantian very carefully about the requirements for sleeves, cuffs, collars, and corners, and then cut the fabric according to Hong Hehe's size, and then sewed it with a long thread needle. Finished...
the top is quite complicated, it took about an hour for the braided grandpa to finally teach Gao Tiantian.
Next, Grandpa Braid had someone call Long Qiang and Tao Rongye back, and asked Long Qiang to measure Tao Rongye, write down the size, and taught Gao Tiantian how to cut the fabric one by one.
Zhizhi guarded her braids and taught Gao Tiantian how to tailor clothes, which she found very interesting.
Grandpa with braids is very good at leading apprentices, cutting while speaking... The language is very humorous, and the reasoning is very simple. After hearing this, Zhizhi also came up with the idea of making a set of clothes for herself.
However, seeing that the time was almost up, Zhizhi hurried into the kitchen and started making lunch.
She calculated that from today onwards, there will be one more Fu Mingyu on the island... In order to let Fu Mingyu understand earlier that labor is the only way to eat, so her lunch today must be ingenious.
ââFu Mingyu ate a full meal of fish with everyone last night. He didn't have breakfast today. He must be very hungry now. As long as she makes her lunch as spectacular as possible, maybe he will bow his head because of this stuttering?
Zhi Zhi went to the vegetable garden with a basket first, and saw a big ripe pumpkin!
She picked a large basket of water spinach, four or five scallops, four or five white radishes, and returned with a big pumpkin in her arms; then she went to the warehouse again, and used a bucket bowl to measure the rice and Flour, hurried back to the kitchen.
ââBecause staple foods such as rice and flour are not enough to eat, until now, everyone dare not open their stomachs to eat. So we made an agreement, we usually eat thin for breakfast, half of the staple food for lunch can be replaced by other starch-rich foods, such as potatoes, yams, sweet potatoes and pumpkins, and 70% of the staple food at night can be full.
So Zhizhi first handled the sea fish hanging on the side nimbly, chopped off the head and tail of the fish with a kitchen knife, picked out the fish bones, washed it, put it on the shovel, and put it in the stove to roast until the skin is slightly tender. Coke, throw it into the pot and add water to start the soup.
Wash the white radish, peel and cut into pieces, and throw it into the soup.
At the same time, I also washed a piece of wild ginger, scraped off the skin, patted it, and threw it into the soup together.
Then set up a steamer on top of the fish bone soup, and pour the rice that has been soaked for a while into the steamer.
In this way, when the fish soup is boiled for half an hour, it turns milky white, and the white radish is also softened, and the rice is also steamed.
However, since Zhizhi also took some flour, the portion of rice was even less, and more other food needed to be added, otherwise everyone would not be full.
Zhi Zhi started to get busy.
Today in addition to her normal meals, she's making a... marinara squash "pizza"!
Knead the flour with water and let the dough rest for a while.
Then start to process the pumpkin, peel and cut into pieces and steam in a pan. While waiting, marinate the fish with oil, salt, sauce, and pepper... By the way, wash the water spinach, choose it, separate the stalk from the leaves, and soak it in water for a while.
When the pumpkin is steamed, put it in the pot, sprinkle half of it with salt for later use, and press the half of it with a little white sugar into mud.
When the dough was ready, Zhi Zhi hurriedly made small pancakes one by one, with the edges slightly curled up, like a small plate.
Next, Zhizhi first put a layer of sweet pumpkin puree in the cake to make it filled high, and brush a little lard on the surface; then put the marinated fish in the middle of the cake plate, and put Salted pumpkin pieces, the skin is brushed with a little bit of lard.
A "pizza" cake with a white center and golden surroundings is formed!
Then she put the pancakes on the shovel and stuffed them into the stove to bake.
In the process of baking the pizza, Zhizhi brought down the steamed rice, replaced it with oil pan, and started cooking.
There were still a few lobster heads left in the morning, if I didn't eat them for a long time...it would be fishy even if it wasn't bad, so it wouldn't taste good. Zhi Zhi scooped out the shrimp paste from the lobster head with a tin spoon and saved a small bowl...
Separate the stems and leaves of the water spinach and wash them.
ââchopped the stalks and scallops separately, first fry the stalks into a muddy pan, then put the stalks in, and finally add minced garlic, it becomes a slightly sour and delicious appetizer.
ââStir-fried water spinach leaves with lobster and shrimp paste, the aroma is strong and the taste is refreshing, far more exciting than stir-fried vegetables!
The two dishes are fried well, and the pancakes are almost baked.
There is a charming and rich food aroma in the air.
There was a commotion outside the kitchen, it was the male educated youth and Uncle Yao who had returned.
Hong Hehe ran into the kitchen to help Zhizhi. She first excitedly said to Zhizhi: "Oh, that dress is so beautiful! The style we designed is beautiful!"
Then she told Zhizhi in a low voice, "... that Fu Mingyu came too cheeky, and sat down Waiting for food in the cafeteria!"
Zhizhi smiled slightly.
Chapter 108
Today it's Zhi Zhi's turn to cook, so Zhi Zhi will be the aunt who cooks.
Each person is given a small piece of white rice, a portion of stir-fried water spinach leaves with shrimp paste, a portion of stir-fried water spinach stalks with scallops, fish head and radish soup is enough, and each person is also given a plate-sized, Extremely thick toast?
Ah no, it should be said, half a bread.
The noodle cake is a base, which is covered with pumpkin puree, with distinct chunks of pumpkin on the surface, and white and slightly burnt pieces of sea fish in the middle.
Hong Hehe stared at this... Huge pumpkin pancake, and exclaimed in surprise: "My God! This pancake is so big, how can I finish it?"
Tao Rongye looked at this pancake, not knowing what to do. It's better to speak.
In the end, he picked up the pancake plate, and took a big bite of the pancake plate...
Huh?
The distinct chunks of pumpkin have a slightly salty taste, and they are inherently sweet. This combination of salty and sweet pumpkin is suitable for saltiness and freshness, and it is quite chewy...
follow , Tao Rongye tasted the pumpkin puree under the pumpkin block.
ââPumpkin puree is delicate and sweet, with a faint milky fragrance, and the taste is soft and waxy, which is simply not delicious!
And the sweet pumpkin puree will not feel greasy, because he also bites into the crispy dough base...
This is too delicious!
The point is, this way of eating is quite fresh. And when you look at the workmanship, you know it's a lot of work... It's the base of the dough, the pumpkin is cut into pieces and mashed, the key is that the pumpkin has two flavors... Only Zhi Zhi can come up with such a good
idea Such a delicious seafood pumpkin pie came out!
Tao Rongye couldn't wait to take another big bite of the pumpkin pie and chewed it.
Everyone looked at Tao Rongye curiously, and asked in unison,
"Rong Ye, is this delicious?"
"Isn't this pumpkin pancake so pretty?"
"It's only Zhizhi who has such a thought!"
"This pancake is so beautiful, I can't bear to eat it!"
"This pancake smells delicious. Did you put milk powder in it?" Inside?"
Zhizhi generously admitted, "Qingyu bought milk powder before the due date, and I put a little bit in the pumpkin puree, everyone, let's try it and see if it tastes good? Can you give me some advice? Next time I will Improve it!"
Everyone started discussing enthusiastically again,
"Is there milk powder in pumpkin pancakes? That's too extravagant!
" It's due in a few months, so don't hurry up and eat it...it's a waste if you can't finish it!" "
No, I mean, the milk powder is sweet, but there are grilled sea fish pieces on it. What is the taste of sweet and salty mixed together?"
"Try it once and you'll get it? If you don't want to eat it, I'll give you rice instead! I think it's delicious and I can have another..."
"You are dreaming! You have a good idea, bah! This is my pumpkin pie!"
Just like that, everyone ate the pumpkin pie happily, and then there were exclamations one after another in the dining hall,
"Oh, this pumpkin pie is too delicious!" Itâs delicious!â
âOkay! Oh my God...itâs the first time Iâve eaten something that has both sweet and salty tastes, and itâs so delicious together!â âThe main thing is that
itâs not sweet. Itâs too sweet and salty, itâs not too salty, it tastes just right!â â
Iâm going, this pumpkin puree is delicious, itâs delicious and sweet!â â
I like this pumpkin cube, itâs moderately salty and sweet, It tastes so good!"
"Let me tell you, you chew the dough and pumpkin puree together, it's delicious, the dough is crispy and crispy, the pumpkin puree is soft and sweet, delicious!"
Fu Mingyu was impatient.
He is starving!
Now I smell the strong aroma of food, and see everyone eating that beautiful pumpkin pie... They are still discussing how delicious that pumpkin pie is!
"Wh-what about my share?" Fu Mingyu shouted anxiously.
In the cafeteria that was so lively just now, it suddenly became quiet.
Zhizhi looked at Fu Mingyu with a smile, thinking that it was finally here -
"What's your share?" Zhizhi asked.
Fu Mingyu yelled sharply like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "My meal! My lunch! Why do you all have it, but I don't?"
Hong Hehe said in surprise: "Hey, why are you here ? This?"
Fu Mingyu was taken aback.
Hong Hehe said curiously: "Didn't you say that even if you die on the pier, you will never set foot in our educated youth station! Even if you starve to death, you will never eat a bite of our food... You also said that you just want to go back , even if it is drowning...you will die on the way home?"
Fu Mingyu's fair and handsome face suddenly burned red.
After a while, he finally said, "Yes, you guys brought me here, so you... must, must take care of my food and drink!" Zhizhi smiled and said: "We don't want you, it's
your family Someone tied you up, begging us to bring you here?"
Fu Mingyu was furious, "Youâ"
Zhizhi said again: "But if you hadn't followed us, you could have seen such beautiful stars and the sea last night Can you eat such fresh and delicious raw fish? Can you...see a mermaid?"
Fu Mingyu was stunned.
Yes, he has never seen such a shockingly beautiful starry night last night in his life, and a magnificent and magnificent sea that is completely different from what he imagined...
He never believed that he would eat raw fish like a savage! But it is undeniable that the fresh fish, lobster, shellfish and conch just caught from the sea are so delicious! It was simply the top delicacy he had never tasted in his life!
And -
the "mermaid" that Zhi Zhi said...
Fu Mingyu blushed.
He admitted that he was fascinated by the beauty of the head of the house, and all night, apart from eating, watching the sea, and watching the stars, he just stared at the big beauty.
He watched the big beauty swimming freely in the sea, saw her plump but light and beautiful figure, and vividly explained what it means to be "elegant like a frightened bird, graceful like a dragon swimming". He never thought that he would inexplicably fall in love with a woman just because he looked at her a few more times. He likes her free and easy and leisurely... He is addicted to her indifference and reticence, and at the same time, he is very jealous of her doting on Bie Zhizhi!
Suddenly -
Fu Mingyu noticed that all the people sitting in the cafeteria were all staring at him?
At this moment, he almost thought that his thoughts had been seen through by them, and couldn't help becoming angry with embarrassment, even the tips of his ears turned red, so he yelled in a bad manner: "Look... what are you looking at? What's so interesting!" Then he was
rude Said to Zhi Zhi in a rough voice: "I... I'm hungry, I want to eat too!"
Zhi Zhi could hear his harsh tone, and also felt that his attitude was softening, so she laughed He said: "That's not allowed, the rule on our island is not to raise idlers. What did you do for the collective today? Why do you eat the same food as us?" At this moment, Fu Mingyu was shocked, "You, you do
n't Give me food?"
"You have to participate in labor to have food."
"I'm not from your Seagull Island, why should I work for you?" "
Since you are not from our Seagull Island, why do you Want to eat our meal?"
"I didn't want to come to your place! Why don't you take me back!" "No
, we have a lot of things to do, so we don't want to do such laborious things." "
Then lend me a boat and I'll go back by myself! "
"The boat is our collective property, so we can't lend it to any individual."
"Youâ"
Fu Mingyu was furious, "Then I...swim back by myself!"
Now, everyone burst into laughter.
Hong Hehe happily nibbled on the pumpkin pie, and said to Fu Mingyu, "Do you know how far we are...from the city? Novices like us dare not row a boat, because the whole way is against the current! Only the braided grandfather, Uncle Yao The masters dared to go there by rowing the boat... Even if they are old-fashioned, they have to walk for two or three hours on the waterway..." "Do
you still want to swim back with such ocean currents? I suggest you, or You should go upstream to Nanling Town? We are familiar with this waterway, that is to say, it takes more than an hour to get there by rowing a boat... However, you donât know the way, so you have to be careful not to go the wrong way. Otherwise, if you swim in the wrong direction and go to Snake Island and Poison Island... it's over, then you're really doomed!"
Fu Mingyu asked tremblingly: "What, what Snake Island? Poison Island What, what is it?"
Other educated youths told him,
"The poisonous island is full of poisonous things like snakes, scorpions, centipedes, and toads. An island, you can survive for two hours at most... sooner or later you will die on it, so the master strictly ordered everyone not to approach it!" "
Snake Island is even more terrifying, there are only snakes on the island, but there may be more than 100 species of snakes , More than half of them are poisonous snakes, and their food is snakes... Hey, it's terrible for snakes to eat snakes!" "There is not even a
single bird on Snake Island, and they have been eaten up by snakes..."
Fu Mingyu was dumbfounded.
Li Shu, who was silently eating pumpkin pie, said, "Fu Mingyu, don't think about swimming and leave here, you can't swim at all!" The educated youths were stunned, and suddenly laughed, "
He
can't swim for a long time! "
"You can't swim, so what kind of cruel words!"
"Speaking of which, in fact, we can't swim, thanks to Zhi Zhifei forcing us to learn swimming..." "
Yeah, Zhi Zhi forced us to learn swimming." Learn to row! Now that I think about it, if it werenât for Zhizhiâs persistence, I might not be able to learn the two basic life-saving skills of swimming and rowing!â âIs he considered a
member of our Seagull Island? If so, learning to swim and row is a must, right?"
"Listen to Zhizhi's arrangement!"
Fu Mingyu was so angry that he was dizzy!
However, he also heard some signs from the words of the educated youths, and quickly began to judge: ââEven
if his parents didn't like him and wanted to send him to a place with poor conditions to suffer, the person in charge of Seagull Island It was Bie Zhizhi, a beautiful and delicate girl. Such a delicate little girl can stay here, how bitter can this island be?
ââJust for todayâs lunch: with white rice, vegetables, broth, and pumpkin pies that are delicious in color and flavor, life on this island will not be too hard.
ââThe head of the justice island next door is a peerless beauty! If he stayed here, he could find a chance to get close to her!
ââLast night, the starry sky and the sea were beautiful, and the seafood was delicious. This is something I canât experience in Linshi no matter what!
ââZhi Zhi asked the educated youth on the island to learn swimming and rowing? That's great! When he learns to swim and row a boat, he can sneak a boat out of here and go back to the old man and old lady for an explanation!
Thinking about it this way, Fu Mingyu was already willing to "surrender".
"Work as you do! But you can't make me work on an empty stomach, right? If you don't eat, you won't have the energy!" Fu Mingyu said aggrievedly.
Zhizhi smiled.
She could also guess what Fu Mingyu was thinking.
But it's good to be willing to take the first step.
This is a good start.
Zhizhi took out a baked potato from the stove, and put a plate of steamed pumpkin pieces left over from making pumpkin pizza in front of Fu Mingyu, and gave him a bowl of radish and fish bone soup without fish.
Fu Mingyu's eyes widened.
ââWhere is the rice? What about the food? How about seafood pumpkin pie?
Why not give it to him?
Zhi Zhi said to Fu Mingyu: "You can eat this for this meal. After all, you ate before you started working. After lunch, you will go to work with Uncle Yao and the others... I will supervise you in the afternoon. I'll also ask Uncle Yao about your work situation. If you don't get Uncle Yao's approval and just work on the sidelines, then you won't have dinner!"
Fu Mingyu: ? ? ?
Zhizhi said again: "You should have seen our dormitory building, right? We live in a dormitory for one person, and our toilets and shower rooms are also very clean. We built these houses ourselves, and you didn't come out. You are too strong, so you are not worthy of living here."
Fu Mingyu looked at Zhi Zhi in shock.
Zhi Zhi said: "Originally, our Seagull Island did not accept newcomers. After all, we have suffered so much to build this deserted island bit by bit. No matter who joins us, they are enjoying the fruits of our victory! So, in order to let you fully understand how we used to build this island bit by bit... After you have lunch later, I will lead you to the bamboo shed next door! After you have passed the three-month period Before the probationary period, let's live there, when we first came here, we lived and boarded in the bamboo shed..."
Fu Mingyu was so angry that his seven orifices were smoking.
Chapter 109
In the end, Fu Mingyu ate the baked potatoes, steamed pumpkin and fish head radish soup angrily.
I have to say that everything feels delicious after being hungry.
The baked potatoes are so fragrant, the steamed pumpkin is so soft, and the fishbone carrot soup is so delicious!
Unexpectedly, Fu Mingyu ran to order another bowl of fishbone radish soup.
After lunch, Zhi Zhi and Tao Rongye took Fu Mingyu to visit the bamboo sheds where the educated youths first came to the island.
Li Shu also followed.
Tao Rongye introduced to Fu Mingyu: "...the one over there is a dormitory for girls, this one used to be a dormitory for boys, you should live here! The one behind is the toilet, you can go to the toilet here, and take a shower here, remember Be sure to take the water and rinse it every day...By the way, there is no connected sink here and no water, you have to take a basin to our side to catch the water..."
Fu Mingyu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot .
Zhizhi also said: "There is no electricity on Seagull Island, so I suggest you, such as washing up, it is best to finish it before dark...the cafeteria can provide hot water when serving three meals a day, remember to bring a water bottle Go fetch water."
"Also, we rest from 12:00 noon to 2:00 every day, and now there is still an hour, you can make your bedding, and remember to go down the mountain to find Uncle Yao and the others on time at 2 o'clock. If you are late , or you arrived on time but your performance is not good, then there will be no dinner!" Zhizhi said word by word.
Fu Mingyu gritted his teeth in hatred, and turned his head away.
Zhi Zhi left with Tao Rongye and Li Shu.
Li Shu also bid farewell to Zhi Zhi, "I've been out for a few days, so I should go back. Do you want to send me there? Stop by the town to see, today should be the first day of the town's joint captain election. "
Zhizhi thought for a while, then shook her head, "The election of the joint captain has nothing to do with us. I'd better stay here and watch Fu Mingyu! I'll let Shouhou take you to the town, just take a look." Is there any mail for me."
After a pause, Zhi Zhi solemnly thanked Li Shu again, "Thank you, Li Shu, this time we went to the city for three or four days, made money by doing business, and helped the boss find a little bit of sea fish I can exchange for a knot of food...I am really grateful to you. Because except you, we are all vested interests, only you...you get nothing." As he said, Zhizhi tried to
ask He said, "Actually, we can calculate the benefits equally and share it with you."
Li Shu shook his head, "I'm a soldier, so I can't do this. If you really do this, you're hurting me." "
I'm sorry, Zhi Zhi immediately said, "Then... what kind of reward do you want?"
Li Shu thought in his heart: I want to date you.
Of course, he didn't dare to say it, so he scratched his head and said, "Remember this first! I don't want anything right now, so I'll tell you later when I think about it." Zhizhi nodded
.
The two said goodbye.
Seeing that Zhi Zhi didn't care about her leaving, Li Shu felt a little lost. But after thinking about it, the outpost on Seagull Island has almost been repaired, and he will be able to go to the island in another month... At that time,
he will be able to guard her every day in a fair and honest manner.
Thinking of this, Li Shu was happy, and left with Shouhou.
Zhizhi ran to look at Fu Mingyu.
Fu Mingyu was quite obedient, and he went to the foot of the mountain around two o'clock to work with Uncle Yao and the others.
Uncle Yao was kind enough to let Fu Mingyu do the work of making bricksâthat is, add water and mud, and then use wooden molds to make the bricks. Uncle Yao felt that Fu Mingyu couldn't do other jobs, so he arranged the easiest job for him.
But Fu Mingyu felt that Uncle Yao was trying to trick him on purposeâit seemed easy to add water and mud, just take a shovel to shovel the mud, keep throwing the mud back and forth, and mix well, right? In fact, it required a lot of arm strength, and he felt that he couldn't hold on after only ten minutes.
Then he saw Uncle Yao picking up the burnt bricks halfway up the mountain?
It seems that Uncle Yao's expression is very relaxed?
Fu Mingyu yelled that he wanted to pick bricks.
So Uncle Yao kindly asked him to choose a brick.
But Fu Mingyu couldn't lift a hundred bricks at all!
He was a little dumbfounded, thinking that when Uncle Yao was picking bricks, he looked calm and breezy!
After thinking about it, Fu Mingyu removed twenty bricks, but he still couldn't carry the waste gas pole?
He unloaded ten more...
then twenty more...
ten more...
then twenty more...and
finally he could carry the load.
But why can he only move twenty bricks? ? ?
shameful!
Fu Mingyu was not convinced.
He can't carry a shovel, mix mud; he can't move bricks...
then he can do Uncle Luo's job!
ââUncle Luo is responsible for moving the shaped mud bricks into the kiln, and stacking them one by one. After the stacking, the kiln can be sealed and fired.
Uncle Luo didn't object either, and asked Fu Mingyu to build bricks with a smile.
Ah, this work is indeed much easier than mixing mud and picking bricks. But Fu Mingyu had to bend down to pick up the mud, and then put it aside... just kept bending down, straightening up, bending down, straightening up, his waist was about to break, and it took him fifty or so block of bricks.
Look at Uncle Luo next to him. In about a short period of time, he has already built a whole wall... At least there are about two hundred bricks!
Fu Mingyu felt extremely frustrated, so he changed another job - following Uncle Liu's example, he went to a kiln next to him, and took out the bricks that had been fired but cooled down from the kiln...
That is to say, the kiln has cooled down.
But there is still some residual warmth.
When Fu Mingyu first entered the kiln, he felt dry and warm, and he was still happy, feeling that he had finally found a job that he could make do with.
But he only moved the bricks for a short while and couldn't take it anymore.
The temperature in the kiln has dropped, but it still feels very hot after working for a long time, and the bricks are hot. After a few rounds, his hands were worn out with blisters!
Fu Mingyu wanted to cry but had no tears, thinking what kind of work these are!
Zhi Zhi saw all of this.
Fu Mingyu tossed and tossed for almost an hour, but he couldn't find a job that was easy and easy to show results with Uncle Yao and the others. He was a little bit broken and sulking as he sat aside, thinking that I wouldn't eat, so let's just starve to death!
Zhizhi carried a big basket with bamboo cups and golden cherry jam in it, and a tin jug full of cold water in one hand, and came to bring water to Uncle Yao and the others.
She dug out a small spoonful of golden cherry jam from the glass jar with a spoon, poured it into a bamboo cup, poured another cup of cold boiled water, stirred it well with a spoon, and handed it to everyone one by one.
Fu Mingyu originally thought with integrity: I won't drink your stuff!
But the aroma of golden cherry jam is very good. Uncle Yao and the others laughed and said that the fruit water is really delicious...
Fu Mingyu thought again: at least he has worked for an hour so far, so why can't he drink gold? Cherry fruit juice?
So he also confidently asked for a glass...
Ah, what is this golden cherry fruit juice? This is too delicious, right?
Fu Mingyu drank three cups in one go! Immediately, I didn't feel hot or thirsty anymore.
Then he thought again: It's too tiring to do these jobs, anyway, I've already done it for an hour, and it's not a loss to pay her three glasses of juice! Hmph, don't want me to work again here.
However, he heard Bie Zhizhi gently ask these uncles what they want for dinner.
The uncles and grandpas were all very down-to-earth people, so they said honestly:
"I have eaten too much noodles these days, let's get some rice to eat!
" !"
"Hey, hey, I also want to eat and eat meat." "
I'm not picky, Zhi Zhi, I'll eat whatever you cook!" "
Zhi Zhi, bring some chili, I want to eat chili .â
Fu Mingyu was stunned for a moment when he heard the words âeat big mouthfuls, big mouthfuls of meatâ, and his saliva flowed down uncontrollably.
Even if he comes from a high-ranking family, rice can satisfy his hunger, but it is impossible to have meat with every meal.
At noon, Bie Zhizhi and the others drank fish and ate fish... At dinner, can they still eat meat?
Fu Mingyu also wanted to eat meat.
He looked at his watch again, and found that it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. Zhi Zhi said that he was going to finish work at 5:30 in the afternoon and finish at 6:00.
so?
He has already suffered half of it!
After drinking these three cups of fruit juice, all his suffering for this hour was for nothing?
It's better to grit your teeth and persevere, finish this afternoon, have a good dinner, and then find a way to escape from here... After
thinking about it, Fu Mingyu...compromised again.
So he yelled at Zhi Zhi with a very bad attitude, "... for dinner, besides rice, meat, and soup, I also want dessert!" After speaking, he stared at
Zhi Zhi viciously.
Zhi Zhi was not angry at his bad temper, and said with a smile, "Okay!"
She packed up the bamboo cup, and left with a basket and a kettle.
Zhizhi went to the vegetable garden, took care of the weeding, watering, inspected the bamboo fence and so on, picked some vegetables and came back, and began to prepare for today's dinner.
For dinner, she still plans to use the big pumpkin. After all, the big pumpkin weighing more than ten catties only ate half of it at noon, and there is still half left!
So for today's dinner, the staple food is: each person can get a piece of three-two-weight rice, and slices of roasted pumpkin buns. As for the dishes, the main course is steamed fish cubes with fresh mushrooms, Chinese cabbage in vinegar, a serving of tiger skin green peppers and a pot of loofah egg drop soup, plus a dessert of corn kernels and pumpkin puree.
Zhi Zhi decided on the menu and started to get busy.
At this time, the thin monkey hurried back.
ââAfter he sent Li Shu to the town, Li Shu took him to the military barracks reception room, and returned with a large stack of letters from Zhizhi and other educated youths. Then Thin Monkey went to the Educated Youth Office to find Director Wang as usual, and asked Director Wang if he had anything to ask Zhizhi.
In the end, Director Wang actually asked the thin monkey to send a message to Zhizhi: Let Zhizhi come to the Educated Youth Office tomorrow, saying that there is something very important to let Zhizhi know.
Zhizhi frowned.
Yes, she is indeed the deputy director of the Educated Youth Office, but this title was appointed because her superiors considered that she had a good relationship with Nanling Educated Youth. To be precise, the superior was afraid that Director Wang would not be able to carry out his work (after all, the previous director had a bad relationship with the educated youths and was hostile), so Zhizhi was appointed as the deputy, the main purpose of which was to cooperate with Director Wang's work.
And Zhi Zhi is only seventeen years old, Director Wang usually discusses important matters with several older staff members in the office, so why would he say... There is something important for Zhi Zhi to arrive as soon as possible Educated youth to do?
Zhi Zhi thought about it, but she didn't know what happened.
She thought, could it be related to the cultural performance?
Forget it, she will go to town tomorrow and ask Director Wang if it's all right?
At this time, the thin monkey said to Zhi Zhi with a confused face: "When I came back, I saw a high platform and banners in the town. I thought it was a batch|fighting meeting, so I stood there and watched for a while... ...I didn't know what the election of the joint captain was. Zhizhi, I saw that Wei Daye also went up to give a speech. The words he said...I couldn't understand, and I couldn't learn a few words for you...But then , I saw Aunt Plum Blossom throwing eggs at Wei Daye, crying and scolding him for being ungrateful, and saying..."
At this point, the thin monkey looked worried.
"What did Aunt Plum Blossom say?" Zhi Zhi asked.
The thin monkey said softly: "Aunt Meihua said, 'The head of the family saved so many of us, you have to kill her in order to become an official'...Zhizhi, I can understand this sentence. Does this mean...Wei Daye Do you want to criticize|fight our master?"
Zhi Zhi clenched her fists.
Chapter 110
During dinner, Zhizhi paid close attention to Fu Mingyu.
It can be seen that Fu Mingyu, who has worked all afternoon, is in a state of embarrassment - the white shirt on his body has been wet by sweat several times and dried by body temperature, so the armpit, neckline and back are all slightly yellow Sweat stains. His black trousers and leather shoes were full of dust and mud spots...
Fu Mingyu's spirit was also a little sluggish, probably because he was exhausted, and he was listless.
Only when he saw the sumptuous meal in front of him did he regain a little vitality.
There is a square piece of white rice in a tin lunch box, but not too much, and two pieces of steamed fish are placed on the rice, which is equal in size to the rice, and some fresh mushroom soup is poured on it.
As the volume of rice is not large, the rest of the space in the lunch box is filled with half of vinegared cabbage and a pinch of tiger skin green peppers.
And, there was a lid of a lunch box in front of everyone, and on the lid lay a huge fat and soft pumpkin bun.
There are also two wooden pots on the dining table, one containing seaweed loofah egg drop soup, and the other containing golden pumpkin paste!
ââPumpkin goo is also dotted with corn kernels, so this is a dessert?
Fu Mingyu took a bite of the steamed fish.
This dish looks light, but the taste is actually more tender than tofu! Tastes fresher than pork! The soup from the steamed fish seeps into the rice, and even the rice is so delicious!
Fu Mingyu finished the rice and fish in two or three mouthfuls, and still felt that it was not enough.
Then he took the pumpkin steamed buns, and felt the heavy weight of the steamed buns as soon as he started with them. After tearing them open again, he quickly felt the pumpkin ingredients in the steamed buns. After taking a bite, he could taste the obvious pumpkin aroma, and A little bit sweet.
Following the example of his uncles and grandpas, Fu Mingyu tore a piece of steamed bun, took some green peppers with tiger skin, rolled up the skin of the steamed bun, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it...
Leihu skin green pepper is the way of Honghehe's hometown: put fresh green pepper directly into the fire to roast, then tear off the scorched skin, put it in the bowl, add fresh garlic, ginger, salt, soy sauce, etc. The child was beaten into a paste.
It doesn't look very good, but it tastes fragrant, spicy and spicy, and it goes well with rice!
At this moment, Fu Mingyu took a bite of the tiger-skin green peppers wrapped in the lightly sweet steamed bun skin. The strong aroma of green peppers mixed with the strong aroma of garlic was simply too delicious!
Moreover, the not-too-spicy pepper flavor made him unable to resist eating mouthfuls...
He couldn't stand the spiciness, so he ate a mouthful of sour vinegared Chinese cabbage.
Vinegared Chinese cabbage is very appetizing, and he can't stop eating it. When the spiciness in his mouth subsides, he can't help but eat a few mouthfuls of steamed buns rolled with pepper... After eating the vinegared Chinese cabbage in the bowl, Fu
Mingyu Quickly scooped up a bowl of seaweed loofah egg drop soup to send steamed buns.
But this soup is actually a lot of ingredients and little water. It has the sweetness of loofah, the freshness of seaweed, and the strong fragrance of egg flower...
ahhhhhh!
Why, the food on Seagull Island looks average, how come every dish is so delicious?
Hey, he hasn't eaten the pumpkin polenta yet!
Fu Mingyu quickly drank all the vegetable soup in the lunch box, and added another spoonful of pumpkin corn paste.
Dessert!
This is his favorite dessert!
In fact, it's not very sweet. It is estimated that Bie Zhizhi didn't put too much soft white sugar in it, and it mostly depends on the sweetness of the pumpkin itself. The taste is particularly soft and thick, and the corn kernels are not much in weight, so you can eat them as soon as you eat them. This stuff is cooked with soft white sugar, so the corn kernels are very sweet.
Drinking a mouthful of sweet paste, the mouth is full of the strong fragrance of pumpkin, and it is slightly sweet and soft, which melts in the mouth. Occasionally, a few grainy corn kernels are bitten, and the mouth is full of absolute sweetness...
Absolutely!
This taste is amazing!
After eating two taels of rice and two taels of fish meat, a fat pumpkin mantou the size of two adult man's fists, and then a bowl of seaweed loofah egg drop soup, and a bowl of sweet pumpkin corn paste... Fu Mingyu
thinks I'm so full I'm about to explode!
Zhizhi came over and urged him to go and clean his lunch box, and told him to fetch water and go back to take a shower before it was dark?
Fu Mingyu was full and in a good mood, so he didn't bother with her, and went to take a bath with the others... and took the opportunity to visit their toilet and bath room.
Then he was in a bad mood.
Why don't Zhizhi and the others live in a single dormitory in a small building with spacious toilets and clean and hygienic bathrooms, but let him live in a straw shed?
But Fu Mingyu was still a little arrogant.
He thought to himself: Hmph, I am too tired from work today, let me take a rest. I'll find a chance to get out of here when I recover... Who cares about your bachelor's dormitory, toilet, and shower room!
So he finished washing the dishes, went back with a pot of boiling water, squatted alone in the bamboo shed bathing room, washed and changed his clothes.
It was already dark by this time.
Fu Mingyu had never done such a tiring job before, and he ate an unprecedented full dinner... As
soon as it got dark, he fell asleep, made a mess of his bedding, and went to bed.
On the contrary, Zhizhi was still a little worried here, worried that Fu Mingyu would get emotional and run up the mountain in the middle of the night... There were no large raptors on Seagull Island, but there were still animals that could hurt people like snakes and hedgehogs.
Zhi Zhi asked Shen Shuhua and Long Qiang to quietly go to the bamboo shed to have a look.
The two of Shen Long went and came back after a while.
Shen Shuhua smiled and said to Zhi Zhi: "I've already fallen asleep, and my snoring is loud... I guess I'm very tired after moving bricks all day in the afternoon."
Long Qiang also said: "We closed the door for him, and we even made some anti-mosquito and anti-snake herbs to stuff in the crack of the door... Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Zhizhi was relieved.
Early the next morning, Zhizhi asked Shen Shuhua and Long Qiang to take care of Fu Mingyu more, and she went to town with Shouhou.
Sure enough, just as Skinny Monkey said, the town was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and many banners were hung up, which read "Warmly celebrate the holding of the election for the joint captain of the 12th Production Brigade of Nanling Town", "Electing for the joint captain, benefit the general public," and so on.
Zhi Zhi looked at the red banners in silence, and hurried to the Educated Youth Office.
When Director Wang saw Zhizhi, he immediately said: "Zhizhi, you came just in time! I have something urgent to see you...Have you seen Liu Xiaoyun recently?" Zhizhi was stunned, and asked: "
Liu Xiaoyun? Isn't she... ...Are you going to jump the queue somewhere else with the transfer order?"
Director Wang said: "Hey, what happened..."
ââ After Director Wang handed over the transfer order, letter of introduction and train ticket to Liu Xiaoyun, he thought that Liu Xiaoyun should not Dare not to go. After all, if Liu Xiaoyun still dared to appear in Nanling after the time limit was exceeded, or if Liu Xiaoyun did not report to the educated youth office where he was receiving within the time limit, the police would issue a general order.
But what Director Wang never expected was that two days ago, a staff member suddenly picked up a train ticket and immediately handed it over to Director Wang.
In this era, train tickets are anonymous, so no one knows who lost the train ticket. It can only be seen from the train number and boarding date printed on the train ticket that this train ticket has expired.
Director Wang stared at the train ticket for a long time, and suddenly Fu Ling's heart came!
He hurriedly dug out the registration book and checked them one by one... Finally, he found out that this train ticket should be the one he gave to Liu Xiaoyun back then!
This time, Director Wang became nervous.
Why did Liu Xiaoyun not show up after the date of boarding the train, but this train ticket did? ? ?
Could it be that Liu Xiaoyun didn't leave?
Director Wang immediately mobilized the educated youths in eleven of the twelve production brigades in Nanling to inquire and search for Liu Xiaoyun's whereabouts.
But no one has ever seen Liu Xiaoyun, and it is impossible to tell when Liu Xiaoyun disappeared.
So Director Wang asked Skinny Monkey to call Zhi Zhi, first of all, he wanted to ask Zhi Zhi if he had seen Liu Xiaoyun. Secondly, he also wanted to ask Zhi Zhi's opinion on this matter, and how Zhi Zhi thought this matter should be handled.
Zhizhi told the director with certainty that there was no trace of Liu Xiaoyun on their Seagull Island.
As for Justice Island, she will go over to ask Xu Yongjun today.
But it is unlikely that Liu Xiaoyun will stay on Zhengyi IslandâJustice Island is too far away from Nanling, and it is impossible to reach it without a boat. And the boss is very restrictive about his subordinates, and he will not allow people to leave the island easily, and of course he will not accept idlers going to the island without reason.
Moreover, the boss didn't want to see Liu Xiaoyun, and even came to the Educated Youth Office to return Liu Xiaoyun...
Of course, Liu Xiaoyun would have no face to go to Justice Island again.
When Director Wang heard it, he thought it made sense.
But Zhizhi's words also shattered his last illusion.
He said to Zhizhi anxiously: "My side has already reported to the police station...but the problem is that the deadline for Liu Xiaoyun to take over has not yet come, oh Zhizhi, I am very disturbed! You say She is a young girl, let's go far away, although the Educated Youth Office will take care of her along the way, just in case, just in case..." "
Hey, I heard all about what happened between you and Zheng Ping on the train back then. Now, what do you think if Liu Xiaoyun is kidnapped on the way? I admit that I don't like Liu Xiaoyun, but I don't want anything to happen to her either!" Director Wang was
anxious Around the office.
Zhizhi thought for a while, and persuaded: "Director, we are just the management unit. You have done what you can, and you have reported to the police in time...We have nothing else to do other than that."
Sitting in the office, a staff member of the Educated Youth Office said: "Director, you are so kind, why don't you think about it, maybe Liu Xiaoyun threw away the train ticket to avoid jumping in the queue? Or she has... ran away to other places. where?"
Another staff member also said: "Yes, the law can only punish law-abiding people! Look at Liu Xiaoyun, she has already returned to her hometown, knowing that her parents are going to sell her for a bride price, and she has no There was no letter of introduction for the ticket, didn't she also come to our Nanling by train? Maybe she went back by train again?"
Director Wang sighed.
Zhizhi had been busy with work at the Educated Youth Office all morning, and she and Shouhou had dinner in the Educated Youth Office's cafeteria before preparing to go back.
As a result, as soon as he left the Educated Youth Station, he ran into Aunt Meihua head-on.
As soon as Aunt Meihua saw Zhizhi, she immediately pulled her aside, and said with snot and tears, "Zhizhi, last time I asked you to persuade Tangniang to participate in the election for the joint captain. Son... is she, is she still unwilling?"
Zhizhi shook her head.
Aunt Meihua looked sad, "Oh, Zhizhi, you don't know, Wei Daye said in his campaign speech yesterday that if he is elected as the captain of the joint brigade, he must clean up the remnants! We must complete the final class struggle, and we must investigate Those groups that support their own self-respect, donât love and obey the government, flout the law, and have long evaded production responsibilities, return the common people to a clear environment..." "Zhizhi, listen up! Isn't Wei Daye
targeting Tangniang?" Aunt Meihua was so angry that she beat her chest, "If Wei Daye is really chosen, I don't know how to wear small shoes for Tangniang! Zhizhi, please persuade Tangniang..." Zhizhi sighed, "Auntie, I
will Persuade her again, but according to her temperament... I'm afraid she won't agree."
Aunt Meihua said anxiously: "Zhizhi, you are a cultured person, you have to explain these pros and cons to her one by one. She has been hiding from the world for a long time. , I donât understand these criticisms | fights, struggles, etc... Oh, Iâm so worried these days! No, just point at Tang Niang, I canât make Wei Daye into a problem, me, I have to find someone to tell everyone not to vote for him!"
Zhi Zhi persuaded her, "Auntie, you should keep a low profile."
"I know, you should go back quickly, go back and talk to her earlier, what if she changes her mind and agrees to participate in the election again?" Aunt Mei Hua said expectantly.
Zhizhi smiled wryly.
